Duke of Edinburgh's Award

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is an international self-development program available to young people aged between 14 and 25. It equips participants with life skills which will enable them to make a difference to themselves and their communities. 

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is non-competitive and voluntary; anyone can do it.  Young people design their own program by selecting one activity from each of the award’s four sections:

•    physical recreation
•    skill
•    community service
•    adventurous journey

Participants commit to meeting minimum time specifications for each of their chosen activities and can work through bronze, silver and gold awards.
