We help young people build life-long belief in themselves, supporting them to take on their own challenges, follow their passions, and discover talents they never knew they had. Because when you prove to yourself that you’re ready for anything, nothing can hold you back.

We want to give more than one million young people the chance to participate in our life-changing programmes, over the next five years. We will focus particularly on those who experience marginalisation, ensuring that the DofE is open to all young people and that our participants reflect the most diverse generation of young people ever.

Any young person aged 14-24 can take part. Young people doing their DofE programme complete volunteering, physical and skills activities and an expedition to achieve Bronze and Silver Awards, plus a residential section to achieve a Gold Award.
