All of this harks back in many ways to my time at Strathclyde, where I developed learning and organisational abilities to achieve so much in later life.

Born in 1918, you attended the Royal Technical College of Science and Technology (later part of Strathclyde) from 1937 to 1939. Yes, but unfortunately the War scuppered my intentions to continue studying. My time at the College really gave me confidence in my abilities, and it was Mr Preston – one of my lecturers – who gave me the inspiration I sought. I genuinely believe this was part of the foundation of my career. What are your memories of 1930s Glasgow? At the time, Glasgow was a bustling powerhouse of industry and engineering. There was so much going on, and great career opportunities. For many, including me, attending the Royal Technical College was seen as a springboard to successful times, provided you applied your skills and personality, and were willing to apply learning beyond the classroom. The war changed that for many people, and I was one of them. 22 23 What’s happening

A lasting legacy

Valerie Clough helps us focus on the future

Tell us a little about your experience studying at Strathclyde The University staff – both academic and administrative – were super. They were enthusiastic and inspiring, and made us all feel that we could ask for anything, at any time. They seemed to really want us to succeed and realise the potential we maybe weren’t even aware of when we started.

Studying and working at the same time, especially in my profession, sounds like a bit of an ordeal. Even my family and friends raised eyebrows when I told them what I was doing, but the supportive environment made it so easy, and it was such an uplifting and empowering time for me. Without it, I’d never have had the confidence to set up my own business. So this inspired you to donate a legacy to Strathclyde in your will? Absolutely, because what I’ve achieved with Strathclyde’s help has transformed my life. I now work for myself, and I have the freedom to choose my own path with real confidence.
