Emma was invited alongside 200 women to represent health and technology. She was invited to represent her profession as an elected member of the Royal College of Podiatry Council, joining nine other female podiatrists.
“As professional lead for podiatry across ELFT and in my capacity as member of council for the Royal College of Podiatry, it was a huge privilege to be part of such a memorable and historical day,” she said.
“Walking through the streets in the City of London waving at the crowds, seeing the smiles and raising awareness of podiatry, felt incredible.”
