Sisters reunited!
Posted on June 29th, 2007
A young Derby woman has found her long lost sister thanks to Business Advice Direct (BAD)!
Georgina Roughan is studying for her European Computer Driving Licence at the learndirect centre in Derby, which is delivered by BAD, and recently a fellow student took her to the canteen at lunchtime.
“I knew I had a sister called Lauren but I had never met her,” said 22-year-old Georgina. “The other student had a suspicion that she was working in the canteen and took me in and it really was her! I am completely shocked but so happy! My head is all over the place!”
Georgina said she already has one sister called Gemma, but now her new-found sister Lauren has revealed that there are five more sisters to meet!
“Lauren lives in the area and we are going to have a big family get together,” said Georgina. “We didn’t have time to speak properly so we are going to meet up later.”
Tutor Tony Goodman said he was thrilled that Georgina had met her long lost sister through BAD.
“This is great news and I am delighted for Georgina,” he said. “This sort of event doesn’t happen very often and I was over the moon to be a part of it.”
Head of Funded Learning Fiona Wright commented: “We are so pleased for Georgina. What a lovely coincidence that she should meet her sister for the first time at our Derby centre. I am sure there will be many happy family reunions after this!”
