Aimee’s story
Aimee’s grandfather has always supported his grandchildren, but when savings started to run low, he asked the MCF to help put Aimee through university.
After Aimee’s father died at the age of 45, her Freemason grandfather, Frederick, stepped in to support the family through the financial strain that followed. But eventually his savings started to run low and he turned to the MCF to help his granddaughter.
“The MCF made sure I had all the resources and equipment I needed to stud,” says Aimee. “I graduated from Cardiff University with first class honours in Psychology and have since completed my PhD.”
I’m extremely grateful for all of the support from the MCF. They have been fantastic, supporting and enabling me to pursue a career I really love. I was also accepted to go and study for the Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, which is what I was aiming for when I was studying, so I’ve finally got there after 9 years!
