Blue Sky Fostering - Ep 23 - Duke of Edinburgh Award

Blue Sky Fostering are the first and only IFA to provide the DofE award and we are incredibly proud of holding our own licence. We have been doing this now for almost 6 years and have had many successes along the way for the young people we care for. I was really lucky today to be joined by Hayley who we have worked with for almost this entire time and she is an Operations Manager at the Charity.

 

So in our chat, we talk about her journey with the award, the perception of the award and how that's changing and some of the challenges faced by lockdown and how the award is flexible and the plans for helping young people achieve.
