DUKE OF EDINBURGH'S AWARD - EXPEDITIONS

We can help you to organise your group’s Bronze, Silver or Gold D of E expedition. Our Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Expeditions are organised by Paul James, who has himself been through the award whilst as school. As a DofE approved assessor he is supported in his role by our team of experienced and qualified instructors who are approved activity providers for D of E. Each expedition is organised individually to suit your dates and availability so that it will fit in with your groups schedule and minimise your work load. All expeditions can be run in Snowdonia and on Anglesey, however we are more than happy to run expeditions in other parts of the country.

We understand each organisation providing Duke of Edinburgh whether a school or youth group will have varying requirements when it comes to support for expeditions. Our aim is to help young people and staff through this process, supporting and helping to manage training, supervising or assessing as suits your organisation.

WHAT WE CAN OFFER

Initial consultation to discuss your aims, the group type, equipment and a general itinerary where we will discuss the expedition aims.

Training at your base or in Snowdonia, dependent on your groups needs.

Training and supervision from qualified instructional staff for both training and assessment expeditions.
