She found a cold hostile place and many barriers. Despite the odds that were stacked against her, she completed her training, got married and raised a family. She climbed the career ladder in nursing to become Sister in charge of an intensive care unit at night.
Shortly after completing a degree in education she retired and threw herself into community work and was awarded the Citizens Award for volunteers by Stockport Metropolitan Borough and the MBE by the Queen. Jannett is now a widow and a great grandmother and continues to do community work.view less
