Duke of Edinburgh's Award

The Award is a challenging programme of activities, which will help you to learn new skills, help others and experience adventure.

It will also give you a great sense of achievement.

What’s more, many organisations such as employers and universities take a good view of the Award and what it says about the person who has achieved it.

The Award is made up of four sections:

Service – to encourage service to individuals and to the local community

Skill – to encourage the discovery and development of practical and social skills and personal interests

Physical Recreation - to encourage participation and improvement in physical activity

Expedition – to encourage the spirit of adventure and discovery

The good news is it’s not an exam and you can’t fail!

The Award is about having a go you don’t need to have done anything like this before. It’s not a competition – you just need a bit of enterprise and perseverance.

On successful completion you will be presented with a badge and certificate.
