Doing my Bronze DofE and now my silver has allowed me to keep motivated and focused during national lockdown and a particularly difficult time in my life. DofE gave me a goal to work towards and kept gave me a distraction from all of the other things going on in my life. Not only has DofE helped me in terms of my mental health it has also helped me realise my passion for baking. I thank the whole DofE organisation for allowing this to happen. I am greatly saddened by the loss of Prince Philip and am greatly appreciative of all he has done for this country and DofE specifically.
