DofE Expedition Section Support for Schools

Our expedition programmes are designed to get the best out of the participant whilst keeping within the rules that makes DofE expeditions so unique. Time and time again we see participants learning the value of shared responsibility for success, through leadership, teamwork, self-reliance and cooperation. Expeditions may be by Foot, Open Canoe or Cycle.

What we offer

We will listen to what support you require and design a bespoke programme around your needs. This could be from weekly training sessions to running the whole expedition section for you. We can work with your own qualified staff or provided our own. We can advise on expedition areas or loan you group kit. We are able to operate all over the UK.

We provide a comprehensive paperwork package for the participants and their parents. This includes workbooks, kit lists, parental permission, NOK and medical forms. We are also able to help with green forms and other statutory paperwork.
