I was invited when i was 15 to take part in the Duke of Edinburgh award.. something that I knew nothing about at the time but completely changed my life as I’ve grown up.. I learnt how to build my own confidence, characteristic skills on how to deal with people which I was never really good with, I also learnt how to deal with situations that was out of my comfort zone making me feel like I was capable of achieving anything.. and that’s because I am! It’s only down to taking part of the dukes award I learnt this. I say with great pride I took part of his award, and I’m internally greatful for his service to this country. His award changed my life for me.
Rest in peace The Duke of Edinburgh.
