Interests

Hobbies and Interests , I have played football for a local team and attended tournaments and league games. I participated in the ‘Duke of Edinburgh Award' gaining bronze and silver levels learning how to work as a team to undertake map reading, camping trips and physical tasks along with volunteering at a local scout's group. I also attended singing lessons and gained my Grade 8 singing qualification which I put to good use as I am part of an amateur dramatics group and have enjoyed performing for over 17 years. Voluntary Work I helped as a volunteer to assist a group of adults with learning disabilities to access a drama class in a youth club setting. I encouraged the members to sing, act and dance to achieve a group performance at the end of the 12-week period.
