The financial support given to me by HLET throughout my time at Exeter University was invaluable. It helped me to make the most of my 3 years studying at the Cornwall campus for my BSc in Zoology, and especially helped me with funding things like field trips, books and equipment which were essential parts of my course. Most importantly the funding allowed me to spend the majority of my University holidays getting valuable voluntary work experience, and this has been the crucial factor in my success at getting into my dream career in ecology and wildlife conservation just a year after graduating. I am very grateful to HLET.
