My experience with the Duke of Edinburgh's Award allowed me to grow in confidence, and increase my leadership and team work skills.
By taking part in DofE, I learnt that failure doesn't mean that the you cannot do something, it just means to try again with more experience and newfound skills. DofE allowed me and my peers to learn new skills from this unique experience, and to persevere through situations that we believed to be challenging.
I found the whole experience to be a chance to challenge my physical and mental abilities. Having now completed the Bronze Award, it has shown me that I can utilise my knowledge, and it has allowed me to learn more about myself and my skills, and for that I will always be extremely grateful.
