Summer 2019 - "Dear Duncan, On behalf of David and us, I would like to thank you for the amazing experience David has had at the DofE Residential - GoFiguera Rowing Camp.  No doubt it is a testimony to your dedication in delivering an all inclusive experience as promised.  Your communication and follow up in the lead up to event and the feedback was also first class.  My apologies for not keeping up.

Apart from the wealth of knowledge and new skills gained, I cannot express how also very grateful I am to you for providing this opportunity in such a safe environment for a young (reserved) 17 year old, away from home with 'new people' - which is an important criteria of the DofE residential.   It may come as a surprise to you that I place an emphasis on safety but when children are raised in a safe and sheltered environment where we live, we tend to live in a bubble.  Thus, raising concerns over whether or not our children are street smart enough in the real world.  You have ticked that box of safety and I will highly recommend GoFiguera camp as the go-to safe-place for our children to develop their 'street smart worthiness' (at a camp with strangers) to say the least, on top of everything else it has to offer.   

I will also put the word out to David's DofE leader at school, even though the children are expected to make their own plans for the residential, it would be something she could recommend to those who struggle to make a decision themselves.  

David mentioned that the accommodation and food were also top notch and it was a lovely group of fellow campers to train with.  The bonus for me, was the return of the clean laundry! "
