Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme Do you feel you need a challenge? Do you think you could survive outside in the countryside for a night? Could you navigate yourself and your team using a map for 24km? Would you like to learn a new skill or start a new sports club? Could you work as a volunteer? If you answered yes to any of these questions then the Duke of Edinburgh's Award could be for you. The award is an adventurous, challenging and a voluntary award that aims to support the personal and social development of young people regardless of their background or ability. It offers individuals the opportunity to undertake constructive, enjoyable and purposeful challenges in their free time. At Dorothy Stringer we currently run the Bronze award which is split into four sections: Expedition, Physical, Volunteering and Skills. For more information on each section please see the tabs on the left hand panel.
