Congratulations Charlotte

Huge congratulations to Charlotte for achieving her DofE Gold Award!

This is an incredible milestone that requires a massive amount of dedication, grit, and hard work. Here is a look at the impressive lineup of challenges Charlotte tackled to earn her Gold:
Physical: Kayaking
Skill: Shooting
Volunteering: Serving as a Young Leader with the Scouts
Expedition: A grueling but unforgettable trek through the Peak District
Residential: A week-long residential stay at High Ashurst

Earning a Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award is no small feat—it takes months of commitment and a true adventurous spirit.

We are incredibly proud of you, Charlotte! What an amazing achievement!
