Summary

A hard working, honest and target driven individual who relishes challenges.

While completing the Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award, I extended the volunteering work from 12 weeks to 24 weeks to obtain an ASDAN award.

During this time, I became a popular and respected member of the team, often designing and leading activities against set criteria and gauged outcomes which I then report back to Leaders.
