Volunteered at a additional support need school, helping a variety of children get their Heart Start certificate. Focussing on what these pupils could do, rather than what they couldn’t, was so powerful.

It was the most rewarding experience knowing I had helped give these pupils with complex needs the skills to potentially save someones life.

Further supporting these pupils, they then went onto complete their Gold Award.

I owe a lot of my life skills and memories to DofE. Thank you. One of my biggest life achievements.
