Duke of Edinburgh's Award

Every year we welcome hundreds of young people to our Residential Centre and Tented Villages in Dorset to take the next step in completing their Duke of Edinburgh Awards. Our team of instructors are experienced at leading expeditions and have crafted a selection of fun-filled gold residential on the world-famous Jurassic Coast.

Gold DofE Residentials

Our gold Duke of Edinburgh’s residential programmes have been designed to satisfy all of the DofE’s residential requirements and are fully licensed by the DofE as we are an AAP (Approved Activity Provider). Over the course of the week, we aim to take young people out of their comfort zone and improve social and interpersonal skills.

It is hoped that participants will leave our trips with new found independence, confidence and skills they can apply to the wider world. We guarantee participants will have an experience to remember and will love trying out our exciting itinerary of outdoor adventure activities on the Jurassic Coast.

There are 7 gold residential programmes to choose from and various sessions throughout the year. Participants can try a host of watersports activities and work towards earning a recognised first aid qualification.

Fully supported Duke of Edinburgh expeditions

We can also organise a range of bronze, silver and gold award expeditions across the South West and National Parks of England and Wales.

Our fully qualified and experienced staff are ready to work with your school and youth group and take you through every step of the expedition process. They will help you plan, train and equip all of your expeditions from the initial training right through to the qualifying expedition.

We are also able to supply top quality team expedition equipment where required.
