Miscellany years of dedicated environmental work in the Mountains of Mourne area, specifically on the beaches and rivers. I should like to take this opportunity of expressing my deep gratitude to my mother and father for all their support and assistance during the last twenty-nine years: they are the ultimate back-up team!! In conclusion, The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award in the Academy would simply not be a possibility without the army of volunteer helpers, from both within and outside the Academy, who give up so much of their free time to assist with the supervision of all areas of the D. of E. I am deeply indebted to them for their enthusiasm and dedication over so many years, and would like to take this opportunity to encourage anyone interested in giving of their time and skills to the D. of E. to come forward.
