The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is an internationally recognised development program, for young people aged 14 to 25. It is an Award that encourages you to do all those things you keep saying you’ll try! It gives you the opportunity to push your boundaries and step out of your comfort zone.

The Duke’s Award encourages you to expand personal horizons and explore potential talents and interests.  It will open up opportunities for new friendships, skill development, increase your job opportunities and give you access to an international network of likeminded participants in over 120 different countries.

The Award comprises three levels, each requiring different levels of commitment and effort. You can start at Bronze, Silver or Gold, whatever level you are prepared for!
