Scout Leading
I pride myself in my volunteer work as an explorer scouts leader. In this role I am able to combine my love for the outdoors and camping in a role where I work alongside likeminded people to inspire and lead the next generation. I have been in the world of scouting and leading for around 3 years throughout my youth, firstly as a scout myself, then as a young scout leader (under 18) and currently as an adult Explorers Leader for Vikings Explorer Group.
Certification
I hold a First Aid at work qualification, for which I completed a full 3 day course in first aid training.
