Duke of Edinburgh Award

Duke of Edinburgh Award

To achieve the awards young people need to complete four sections – Volunteering, Physical, Skills and the Expedition.

Young people can choose what they would like to do for the first three sections, and we will provide all the guidance and support they need. The Expedition involves spending two days and one night in the countryside/urban adventure,

When it is running and where

Weekly sessions at The Foundry around volunteering, Physical activity and Skills

Who is it targeting

Young people aged 14-18

Why it will benefit them

Doing DofE is a brilliant way for your young person to discover just how much they are capable of. It gives young people the chance to make new friends, follow their passions, learn new skills and make a difference in our community. Gaining a DofE Award is a great way to impress employers too.

It’s also non-competitive and a powerful way for every young person to build belief in themselves, whatever their background, interests and abilities.
