A very DofE Christmas

Looking for gift ideas for yourself, friends and family?

We’ve hand-picked our favourite DofE gifts that make great presents for everyone on your Christmas list.

What’s even better? Every purchase of a DofE branded product generates a donation to the DofE charity.

The DofE branded Lifeventure thermal mug is great for anyone on the go. These mugs will keep your drink hot or cold for up to four hours wherever you are. There’s no need to worry about spillages as it is guaranteed to be leak-free by Lifeventure.

Whether you are heading to school, work or on a walk, keep your juice cool or your coffee hot with your DofE Thermal Mug.
