Undertaking my Gold award has been one of the most rewarding and challenging experiences of my life. To me this opportunity was about making a positive impact on other's lives as well as my own.

Every aspect pushed me to achieve new things and learn important life skills, from communication to organisation. Through the award I have met some incredible individuals that have made a great impression on the way I think about and tackle life issues.

When I look back on this amazing journey I feel a sense of pride, and thankfulness to everyone who helped me along the way. I could not recommend the award enough, especially to those who want to step out of their comfort zone and really make a difference.
