What is DofE?
The Duke of Edinburgh's Award (DofE) is a global youth award program that challenges young people aged 14-24 to develop skills, get fitter, help their community, and undertake an adventurous expedition(s). Participants choose their own activities in a non-competitive, flexible program that builds confidence, resilience, and essential life skills, with three progressive levels: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. It is often done in conjunction with your school.
