BEST THING I EVER DID: Matthew Maidment, 16, Nottinghamshire

1 min read

I joined Acorn e2e mainly to gain confidence, get some qualifications and get into a routine.

Since I joined Sea Cadets I always wanted to join the Royal Navy. I thought that if I joined the Navy I would be part of something big and it would give me something to be proud of.

My e2e key worker encouraged me to become a member of the local gym to get my fitness levels up for the Navy.

Acorn e2e helped me get a place in the Navy and to achieve my lifetime goal.
