Summary
At 64, John Adesoye defied the odds to become a registered nurse—yes, a dad of five, former electronics technician, and UK transplant who started as a healthcare assistant in 2014. Balancing hospital shifts, one day a week on campus, and family life, he earned his degree apprenticeship at the University of the West of England, rotating through cardiology, A&E, and ICU. His instructors called his grit “no mean feat,” and NHS leaders hailed his journey as proof that age is just a number when you’re chasing purpose. Now working at Southmead Hospital, John’s story is a roaring anthem for anyone dreaming of a career pivot—no matter how late you start.
