WO1 Will sharing a few words with the Countess of Wessex during her visit to Royal Victoria Chapel today.

He uses his appointment as Lord Lieutenant’s cadet towards the Volunteering Section of his Gold Award.

Just one of the fantastic opportunities available to VCC cadets

Volunteering is an essential part of the Duke of Edinburgh programme. Between April 2021 and March 2022, @DofE participants dedicated over 10,000 hours to volunteering for Girlguiding, with a value of over £47,000 - incredible! Well done, everyone 👏🎉 #GirlguidingxDofE

It can be dark for many. Our #DogTeam need your help. We need light collars to track dogs at night. We need to raise £590 for the team. Can you donate £5 🧡

Awesome work everyone! #DofE

ENDEX!!

I am immensely proud of everyone of the Cadets who have successfully completed the Expedition section of the Bronze and Silver Duke of Edinburgh’s Award!! A massive effort in challenging conditions - you should all be very proud of what you have accomplished!!! @DofE

[DofE Ollie @DofEOllie]

Amazing who you bump into on your walk @VCCDofE ! Great chatting to the teams about how they’ve found @DofE during this time - great resilience shown, alongside some inspirational Leaders #YouthwithoutLimits

[DofE @ Volunteer Cadet Corps @VCCDofE]

Fantastic first day back in the field for @DofE training post-COVID. Lots of enthusiasm and lots of learning consolidated today - bring on the Expeds!! Also, great to catch up with @DofEOllie - thanks for joining us for the day! @VCCcadets @ComdVCC @DComdVCC @DofEOps

[DofE @ Volunteer Cadet Corps @VCCDofE]

A morning of briefings at Longmoor Camp ahead of the @DofE Expeds in September and October.

The last time I did this we were in lockdown a few weeks later - Is that light at the end of the tunnel or someone with a torch?!

[DofE Ollie @DofEOllie]

Lovely evening with Taz the Border Collie to SkillUp for our #doit4youth challenge!

[DofE Ollie @DofEOllie]

I’m taking part in Do It 4 Youth, a DofE inspired sponsored challenge, and I’d love your support. Every pound raised will go towards helping young people from the toughest backgrounds across the UK to build life-long belief in themselves through DofE. https://t.co/hJ3EsGWcSh

[The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award @DofE]

Our new survey of nearly 10,000 #DofE participants reveals the impact of lockdown on young people. Across the UK, many are using their time productively to create a positive change, such as being more active or learning a new skill.

[DofE Ollie @DofEOllie]

Great idea! #DofEwithadifference

[Deputy Commander VCC @MajColpittsVCC]

Such a great idea from @VCCDofE! Without the ability for face-to-face development lessons, e-meetings to point our loyal @VCCcadets in the right direction and guidance on completing their @DofE section during #COVID19. #MeetTheChallenge #MakeADifference
@DofEOllie @DofESouthEast
