 DUKE
OF EDINBURGH AWARD
There
are three levels to the Award - Bronze, Silver and Gold - and, for each,
you complete activities in four Sections - Service, Skills, Physical
Recreation and Expeditions. At the Gold level you also take part in a
Residential Project.
It's
up to you what you do. In each Section there is a wide range of options
you can choose from or you can find other similar activities which
interest you. This could be something entirely new or you could continue
with an activity you already enjoy. The good news is it's not an exam and
you can't fail! The Award is about having a go. It's not a competition -
you just need a bit of enterprise and perseverance.
