Wherever you’re at, whatever you’ve done up until now, if you’re between 14-24, The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) is for you.
This is for the gamers, skaters, bikers and bakers. The dress-makers, film-makers and change-makers. The just-out-of-bedders, wheelchair-racers, dancers, DJs and none-of-the-abovers.
Whoever you are, this is you and your friends sharing amazing experiences, having fun and just maybe changing your futures along the way.
DofE helps to turn the things you love and the things you’ve always wanted to try, into powerful lifelong skills that can help you get a job, change your community and take on anything life throws your way. And yes, there’s going to be a bit of camping involved.
Whatever you’re into, get into DofE.
