We have welcomed many guest speakers this term, Emma Wade OBE, British Diplomat in Washington DC, USA, being the most high profile. Emma was able to persuade students that working for the Diplomatic Service is open to all British citizens and described the possible pathways to employment in this high status profession; an occupation enabling you to travel the world to live and work in many exciting destinations, sharing British values and looking after British citizens and British interests abroad.
