🎉 Huge congratulations to Audiologists Louise McGarva and Melissa (Mel) Gray on successfully completing their BSc in Audiology!

Balancing study, clinical work, and family life over the past two years is no small feat, and their achievement is a true testament to their dedication.

🌟 Louise achieved the best Dissertation grade in her year and received a special award from a leading hearing aid manufacturer.

🌟 Mel has completed the Diagnostic Auditory Brainstem Testing course, supporting NHS Forth Valley’s Newborn Hearing Screening Programme.

👏 Well done both — an inspiring achievement!
