hi is there anyone else out there with a teenager with asthma and having problems even finishing the bronze award
my 14 yr old has been having a go at doing her bronze award for duke of edinburgh but on each of the camps has ended up being sent home
she had her final assessment at the weekend over night camp dun 12 km walk first day (after not completeing the practice weekend she was given a day sack and main rucksack taken by car) she completeed the walk/trek completed all the evening activities but ended up coming home at 1.30 am as she was having problems controlling her asthma hence missed the following days trek now they are giving her the chance to do the 2nd day with no camp with another group in september with a day sack thankfully she will finish it in the end
really deep down she would like to go on to do silver award 3 day 2 night camp but now saying she doesn't want to cos she will only end up being sent home
any advice anyone please
karen
btw she and her brother (7) have both got into ardingly kick asthma holiday and both especially oldest looking forward to it think it might be just the boost she needs
