DofE has impacted my life by showing me that the most important things in life are the people around you. You don’t need to be doing something extravagant, all you need are people you care about. Me and my closest friends have shared some of our most valuable, memorable and hilarious moments doing the DofE award, and we were simply walking through nature. It may have been tough, but we all laughed it off and enjoyed each other’s company and I will never forget the countless jokes and memories we made both on the DofE expedition and the work leading up to it.
