We are delighted to received a certificate of social value which details the total hours DofE participants at PHSG have donated to the local community in the last financial year 2019/20.

98 of our students conducted the DofE last year and we are super proud of all of our students and the time they have dedicated to aceiving their awards. In addition to volunteering, the students spent a total of 923 hours learning an new skill and 949 hours of physical activity. Well done to everyone!

Across the South West, DofE participants contributed an incredible 331,994 volunteering hours to help others, which equates to a social value of over £1,440,000.

At a time when volunteering and supporting the local community could not be more important, Heather Thompson, DofE South West Director, has passed on her thanks to the DofE Manager, staff volunteers, and finally all the incredible participants who have made, and continue to make, such a positive impact on their local community.
