It seems hard to believe that last year we were
all at Go For GOLD in Hednesford, just taking our first small steps on our GOLD
journey! Along with over 100 others, our written applications had been
shortlisted for GOLD and we were ready for the fun and challenge of the selection
weekend.
Putting up our tents in the dark on a very stubborn slope was
the first challenge we overcame, and the weekend was full of songs, activities
and new experiences! In December 2015 we heard the news that we had been
selected for the GOLD project in Aruba. Incredible to think that we are now prepping for our upcoming
debrief weekend.
Over the course of the last year, there have been several
poems to capture what we have been up to. Featuring interesting fancy dress, our
attempts at croquet, Aruban TV appearances, and our experience delivering
training in 38 degree heat!
In case you’ve missed them, here they are all together…
