Eunice Adeyo, Handford 2016-2018

Eunice

Eunice came to Lancing from Trinity School in Lewisham, one of our original partners.

Eunice went on to read English Literature at King’s College Cambridge where she was President of the Student Union. She was awarded the Provost Prize for her integral role in the transition from in-person to online during COVID-19 and for her mediation between the College and the student body.

Eunice is currently working at ‘IntoUniversity’ as an Enrichment and Mentoring Coordinator. Her role at the largest educational charity in the UK involves organising and managing corporate and university mentoring schemes and internships for disadvantaged young people. She is committed to her charity work and plans to continue for a number of years before beginning a Law conversion in 2022 in order to become a trainee solicitor in 2024.

At the start of the pandemic, Eunice volunteered for a year at Haringey Migrant Support Centre as an on-call interpreter from Yoruba to English and as an NHS Volunteer responder for six months.
