The Duke of Edinburgh has helped millions of young people and will continue to have an impact on young adults for years to come thanks to the legacy of his Duke of Edinburgh's Awards. It has been such an honour to be involved with The Duke of Edinburgh Awards ceremonies over the past few years and to see how much the young people that have worked towards their Awards have benefitted from their efforts. They gain confidence, team building skills, spend time in their communities, learn new skills and take part in physical activities. I have always felt that my own DofE experiences have helped me in ways that I hadn't realised until later in life but the skills learnt have benefitted me both professionally and personally and I am hugely grateful for that.
