"I want to be a physiotherapist because I have a great passion in health particularly in paediatrics. I grew up seeing children with cerebral palsy and other conditions in which physiotherapy can help people. You also see people with stroke in our communities and I have a passion to reach out to these people and help them. I have really seen that physiotherapy is crucial. Everyone needs a physiotherapist. When I graduate I want to work in Malawi. I can’t learn here and then go outside Malawi. This would not be good for my country. I have a dream to have my own physiotherapy clinic. I want it to be in the district where I grew up in Phalombe district.”
