dailyrecord.co.uk:

A young Scots mum, who quit her job as a Starbucks barista, is on her way to pursuing her dreams after winning a prestigious scholarship.

Jo MacLeod, 27, left school at 17 and went on to work in a number of retail jobs before taking on a full-time position at Starbucks.

However, in hopes of providing better life opportunities for her daughter, the mum decided to take a leap of faith and give up her job to return to college.

Jo, originally from Stirling and now living in Leith, gained a HND in legal studies and is currently a third year law undergraduate at Edinburgh Napier University.
