The Duke of Edinburgh Awards

The Duke of Edinburgh Awards is a youth development program that encourages young people aged 14 to 25 to challenge themselves and develop skills across four key areas: volunteering, physical activity, skills development, and an adventurous journey. Participants set personal goals, undertake projects or activities, and complete a guided expedition, fostering confidence, resilience, and teamwork. The program recognizes achievement through awards at bronze, silver, and gold levels, promoting personal growth and community engagement while providing valuable life skills.
