She embarked on a career in Chartered Accountancy in September 2005 but was tragically lost to us forever in November 2005. As a mark of respect,affection and admiration which her tutors and friend felt and still feel for Gemma, this award is presented to commemorate her life, preserve her memory and to honour her name.
The award is made to the Accounting and Finance student who has undertaken the same modules as Gemma and shown such a level of improvement in their final year results to as Gemma did, move up a classification in their final year in comparison to the expectations generated by their first and second year results.
