DofE

The Duke of Edinburgh Award is a prestigious international youth development program that challenges young people to develop life skills, engage in community service, and undertake adventurous expeditions. It offers three levels: Bronze, Silver, and Gold, each requiring participants to complete a range of activities in categories such as physical fitness, skills development, volunteering, and outdoor exploration. The award aims to foster personal growth, resilience, and a sense of achievement in participants.
