Duke of Edinburgh's Award
The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is a challenging programme that gives young people the opportunity to experience new activities, develop skills and interests as well as fulfil their potential as active citizens in Derbyshire.
Anyone between the ages of 14 and 25 years can undertake a Duke of Edinburgh (DofE) programme at one of the Bronze, Silver or Gold levels.
Activities are undertaken for a specific period of time in each of the following sections:
volunteering
physical
skills
expedition
residential (Gold level only).
DofE programmes are delivered across the county by schools, voluntary organisations, youth clubs and open DofE centres.
We provide support to these and are the licence holders for the delivery of DofE in Derbyshire.
Currently in Derbyshire there are:
more than 5,000 participants involved in DofE
66 DofE Centres
more than 300 leaders and volunteers.
