The Latest
If it wasn’t for DofE I wouldn’t be a major part of LYC (Lambeth Youth Council). I would have never pushed myself to lead a campaign or have been given the opportunity to speak at the rally of the Women’s March. I wouldn’t have considered it possible. DofE showed me what I was capable of."Maria

I’d always wanted to go into law but thought that it wouldn’t be possible because of the area I live in, because of the way that I talk but I now feel like I can do law, I can go to the college that I want to go to, DofE has given me the confidence that there’s nothing to stop me from doing what I want to do.”Janae
