Who it's for
Young people in year 9 and above. No experience needed — just enthusiasm and a willingness to give things a go.
Discover new interests, volunteer in your community, get active and take on an expedition. BCT Aspire runs the DofE Bronze Award for young people in year 9 and above.
After a fantastic restart to our Duke of Edinburgh programme, this year's group is well underway — and we're recruiting for the Bronze Award.
The DofE is a chance to discover new interests, have fun and achieve something recognised by employers, colleges and universities across the UK. Our friendly leaders support every participant through all four sections of the award.
Every award is built from the same four parts.
The perfect starting point on the DofE journey — here's what it involves.
Young people in year 9 and above. No experience needed — just enthusiasm and a willingness to give things a go.
Around six months of volunteering, physical and skills activities — most sections take just an hour or so a week.
The highlight for most — plan, train for and complete a two-day expedition with an overnight camp alongside your team.
Places are limited each year. Contact us to register interest for the next Bronze Award intake.
