Completing DofE Bronze Silver and Gold awards has completely changed who I am as a person. I’ve tried new activities and pushed myself outside of my comfort zone and I am so grateful for it. It’s been a massive part of my life and in the future I hope to encourage and guide others through their awards too as I do genuinely believe it is the best way for a young person to develop into an adult and gain essential life skills. Thank you to His Royal Highness Prince Phillip the Duke of Edinburgh for developing this award and inspiring thousands of young people for generations.
