DENISE Bedford from Mirfield DofE does a fantastic job in providing fun and care for young people with disabilities very sad if the funding is removed.

The D of E is such a valuable award to have. Please do not take this away.

This would be a tragedy, to prevent young adults the opportunity to gain such valuable life skills. The people making these illogical decisions hopefully had their opportunitys to do DofE. Don't prevent the future generations.

I'm currently doing my Gold DofE and I hate the thought of others missing out on a life-changing experience like achieving the Duke of Edinburgh award.

These scheme are vital to the development of young leaders and mature adults. There is no alternative for the many young people.

The DofE scheme helped my daughter become more independent and introduced her to people and activities she would not have been able to access any other way.

This is a fantastic service, my son has completed his Bronze, Silver & Gold awards with Kirklees DofE and it should continue to help many more young people. It has opened up so many doors for him with employers as its a fantastic achievement to gain all 3 awards! This service MUST continue!
