The Duke of Edinburgh Award is one of my most notable achievements, as it helped me to realise the true strength and dedication that I possess. I will be forever grateful for the experience, the friends I made and the faith I now have in myself whenever I approach a new challenge. I went on to participate in a community outreach programme in Mozambique and Swaziland. Without having done DofE I am certain that I wouldn’t put myself forward for such an amazing and humbling experience. All I can truly say is thank you.
