“…I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you (Ben) and Drew for the excellent work you did with our DofE students.

The time you spent with them on navigation, map reading, and related skills was invaluable.

The students really benefited from your guidance and are feeling much more confident as they prepare for their expedition.
We are very grateful for the expertise and enthusiasm you both brought to the sessions…”
