D of E What we do
Adventure from beginning to end
The DofE programme is a real adventure from beginning to end. The Church Lads' & Church Girls' Brigade offer the DofE in various areas of the country. You need to be aged between 14 and 24 and realise there’s more to life than sitting on a sofa watching life pass you by.
Levels
You can do programmes at three levels, which when completed, lead to a Bronze, Silver or Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award.
Sections
You achieve your Award by completing a personal programme of activities in four sections (five if you're going for Gold) - Volunteering, Physical, Skills, Expedition and for Gold, a Residential.
You'll find yourself helping people or the community, getting fitter, developing skills, going on an expedition, and taking part in a residential activity (Gold only).
The best bit is - you get to choose what you do!
