I currently work as a Specialist Biomedical Scientist in Haematology and Blood Transfusion within the Pathology department at Furness General Hospital. I am also currently studying to complete a Master’s in Biomedical Science. I was encouraged, supported and challenged during my time at Cartmel; this was instrumental in the successes I have achieved since, and the work ethic I have developed.” My name is Joe Hambley and I am an Engineer for GSK. I attended Cartmel Priory School between 2007 and 2012. After school I completed an apprenticeship with GSK and after 4 years became a Mechanical Technician at the Barnard Castle factory.
