Martin and Julie my foster carers encouraged me to join St Johns Ambulance Cadets after trying various sporty activities which isn’t really me.
Although at first I was really, really nervous and didn’t think I would enjoy it I did.
It is a small group and I was allowed to do as much as I felt confident with. My instructor is nice and friendly and very patient. The uniform is green and froglike but ok.
I have passed my Life Skills Level 1 and working towards my level 2. We get go to events as support such carnivals, rugby matches and shows.
I have learnt basic life skills and what to do in an emergency, how to do resuscitation and more, which is important for everyone to know!
Before I came into foster care I felt unable to do anything about my life but this has given me confidence and power and will help me in the future.
