Do

The Award is a flexible, interesting and fun-packed programme for all young people between the ages of 14 and 24 regardless of their background. Participants pursue a number of self chosen activities over a set length of time. It is entirely voluntary and is structured so the Participants can design their own unique program centred around their interests and passions. It’s not a piece of cake, but it is well worth the effort.

About

The Award Programme grew out of the efforts of three men, who were responding to a common anxiety about how best to engage young people. The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award was set up in 1956, by HRH Prince Philip, Kurt Hahn, a German educationalist, and Lord Hunt, leader of the first successful ascent of Everest. Based on the philosophy of Hahn, the Programme was designed around four sections: Rescue & Public Service Training, the Expedition, Pursuits & Projects, and Fitness.
