What is DofE?

The DofE is a life-changing adventure you don’t want to miss. 

 

It’s about going the extra mile ­– learning new skills for work and life, getting fitter, helping others, and exploring the countryside.

 

Millions of young people in the UK have already done their DofE.

 

Now it’s your turn.

What Involved?

Adventurous, caring, sporty, creative… however you might describe yourself, the DofE is for you. Anyone in school year in which you turn 14 to aged 24 can take part. There are three progressive levels of programmes which when completed lead to a Bronze, Silver or Gold DofE Award. To achieve your Bronze Award, you’ll need to complete your own programme of activities in these four sections:
  • – Volunteering
  • – Skills
  • – Expedition
  • – Volunteering
