Yasmine Awan, 26, of Sheffield, Yorkshire, wears a white doctor’s coat during the week and a mermaid tail at the weekend.

The young woman took an unusual approach to funding her MBBS by working as a mermaid on the weekends, combining emergency medicine and free-diving practices.

Jasmine belongs to a group of mermaids scattered throughout the United Kingdom. Among their ranks, they have some of the best sirens, among other titles.

“As part of our many adventures, we perform at aquariums across the country, do interactive live shows at festivals, and even host parties and family events,” they say on their website.
