The second I was introduced to the DofE I knew that this is a life-changing programme allowing young people to grow as an individual as well as making a positive difference in their community. Although I was too old to complete the programme myself, as a volunteer I too grow as I guide and engage with all the remarkable participants. Thank you for establishing and organising this programme which is having a huge impact and makes the world a better place.
