Volunteers, staff and students who are undergoing their Duke of Edinburgh award patiently waited for the arrival of Prince Edward to make an appearance at Stonebridge Farm on March 14 in St Ann’s. As people excitedly waited, the importance of the Duke of Edinburgh Award was highlighted.
Prince Edward was given the title Duke of Edinburgh on his 59th birthday by King Charles lll. The Duke of Edinburgh is a voluntary programme filled with adventurous activities for young people between the ages of 14 and 25 - whatever their ability or background.
One of the young people meeting Prince Edward, 22-year-old Amelia Warren, is from Nottingham. The DofE Youth Ambassador helped to host The Duke.
