        Overview

        By the time this film was made, the Duke of Edinburgh Awards scheme was becoming more and more popular and has since gone from strength to strength to be part of most teenagers' lives. This film, commissioned by Norfolk County Council, was made to promote the wonderful facilities available at their Sheringham base and would have no doubt encouraged many youngsters to sign up, learn new skills, develop their sense of responsibility and independence and have fun to boot!
