Desperately sad news, as our Co-chair @PaulSceeny_AdEd says. Pauline's loss will be with us for years to come but we'll ensure her amazing legacy and passion for #ESOL remains with us.
RIP in lovely lady. 😢
Awful having to share this desperately sad news for
@nateclascotland and the entire @NATECLA family.
We'll miss Pauline, and will be paying tribute to her immense contribution to the #ESOL community throughout these islands at next week's #NATECLA24.
