Personal Development: The Gold Award is designed to help you grow and develop as an individual. You will gain valuable skills, knowledge, and experience that will help you succeed in life.

Build Your CV: Completing the Gold Award is an impressive achievement that will set you apart from your peers. It demonstrates your commitment, dedication, and leadership skills, which are all highly valued by employers and universities.

Make a Difference: Through the volunteering and community service components of the Gold Award, you will have the opportunity to make a positive impact in your community. You can choose to support causes that you are passionate about and make a real difference in the lives of others.

Adventure: The Gold Award includes an adventurous journey component, which allows you to explore the great outdoors and challenge yourself physically and mentally. This can be a truly transformative experience that will stay with you for a lifetime.

International Recognition: The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is recognized around the world, so completing the Gold Award can open up opportunities for you both at home and abroad.

Kings Scout Award: On completion of your Gold award you would have completed the majority of the work that you need to do to be able to gain your King Scout Award (KSA), so why not aim to get the highest award achievable in Scouting in the UK!

Party at Big C’s house: On completion of Gold DofE you will get the opportunity to attend a garden celebration at Buckingham Palace where you, along with many other Gold award recipients, will get to celebrate your achievement.

In summary, pursuing the Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award is an amazing opportunity for personal growth, community impact, and international recognition. It’s an experience you won’t regret, and one that will stay with you for a lifetime.

Why do it with us?
We are aware that a lot of schools offer the DofE Scheme to their students, this is normally at a more expensive rate than we are offering it at. It is up to you to decide where you would like to take up your DofE program, if you have various options. Please note that with Bournemouth Explorers, it is down to you to put the work in to complete the award, the leaders will be on hand to provide as much support as they can, but they will not be doing the work for you. The leaders will not be coming to chase after you for the work.
