Northumbria graduate Sebastian Moore grew up in the care system in County Durham, attending 15 schools in as many years. By 16, he was living independently. When he arrived at Northumbria, he found solid ground: a Care Leavers' Bursary, a guaranteed 52-week tenancy, and a dedicated care leaver contact who understood exactly what he needed to succeed. 🗣️ "I remember arriving at Northumbria and realising, for the first time, that I didn't have to solve the basics before I could start learning." Sebastian studied International Relations with Politics at Northumbria and today, he works at HM Treasury and has been named on the AI 100 UK List (2025), the Government Global AI 100 List (2025), and the Digital Leader Top 100 UK List (2024) for his work on AI and digital transformation in the public sector. Sebastian’s story shows what’s possible when the right support is in place, and that your background is never a barrier to what comes next. 🔗 Swipe through to read more, and discover Sebastian's full story in The North Edit via the link in our bio. #TheNorthEdit #NorthumbriaUniversity #SocialMobility
