Statement from OXPED CIC

With regret, following several years of disappointing levels of applications from DofE participants and increased competition in the open expedition sector, the Directors and Members of OXPED CIC have decided to no longer offer expeditions beyond the 2021 season.

We would like to thank all former participants, leaders and supporters of OXPED CIC and the preceding unincorporated organisation Oxfordshire Open Expedition Group for their help and encouragement over the years.

Please note that the unrelated charity Oxfordshire DofE Open Award is not affected by this announcement.

• Alternative providers of open expeditions may be found here: Duke of Edinburgh's Award - Approved Activity Providers

• If you are looking for an expedition because you are no longer with the DofE Centre where you started your Award, try the Oxfordshire DofE Open Award website, as they may be able to help
