It is with a heavy heart that I write this tribute to our beloved colleague and friend, Charlene Allen, who recently lost her battle with breast cancer. Charlene was more than just a co-worker; she was an inspiration and a beacon of strength and positivity. Charlene's dedication to her work set a high standard for all of us. Her ability to connect with everyone, offering kind words and a listening ear, made even the toughest days in HE brighter. Her courage in facing her illness was nothing short of heroic, teaching us all about the power of hope. As we mourn Charlene's loss, we celebrate her life and the incredible legacy she leaves behind. She touched many lives with her kindness and unwavering spirit. Her memory will forever remain in our hearts, inspiring us to live with the same passion and purpose. Charlene, thank you for everything you gave us. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. Rest in peace, dear friend. Lots of love from Julie and all the Admissions team at the University of St Andrews.
