Jake Dove is an exceptional leader and recently achieved his Duke of Edinburgh's Gold Award.  The award inspired him to take up backpacking and climbing as hobbies and he now aims to progress his personal development with a Walking Group Leader Course.

This qualification will enable him to supervise and lead expeditions throughout the county for young people participating in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme.  The JTYAF are delighted to support Jake's training as this will provide opportunities for many more young people to develop their experiences and skills through expeditions with the D of E.
