DofE EXPEDITION CLINICS
MAKING DofE EXPEDITIONS A FANTASTIC, REWARDING JOURNEY
DofE expeditions can be one of the most rewarding and memorable parts of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award for young people.
But we know that, behind the scenes, organising and delivering a successful expedition can sometimes feel complicated.
That’s where we can help.
Got a DofE expedition question? Let’s talk.
If you’re planning, organising or delivering DofE expeditions and have a question, a problem to solve, or simply something you’re not quite sure about, why not book a free, one-to-one, 30-minute online DofE Expedition Clinic with us?
It’s an opportunity to talk through whatever is on your mind with someone who understands DofE expeditions and the challenges that come with making them happen.
No sales pitch. No obligation. Just a chance to talk things through and get some practical advice.
What can we help with?
Your clinic can cover anything relating to the expedition element of the DofE Award.
For example, you might want to discuss:
✓ Expedition planning and preparation
✓ Equipment and kit
✓ Risk assessments and managing risk
✓ Route planning
✓ Expedition staffing and supervision
✓ Training and preparation for participants
✓ The practicalities of running an expedition
✓ Common challenges or problems you've encountered
✓ Questions about your current expedition programme
✓ Ideas for making your expeditions more engaging and rewarding for young people
And if your question isn't on the list, that's absolutely fine.
If it’s something to do with your DofE expedition, bring it along to the clinic and we’ll see how we can help.
DofE expeditions involve lots of moving parts, and it’s completely normal to have questions.
Perhaps you’ve inherited responsibility for expeditions and aren’t sure where to start. Maybe you’re planning a new programme, reviewing how you currently deliver expeditions, or have come across a particular challenge that you’d like a second opinion on.
You don't need to have everything figured out before you speak to us.
Our clinics are designed to give you space to ask questions, explore ideas and find practical ways forward.
FREE, FRIENDLY AND WITH NO OBLIGATION
We'd love the opportunity to work with you on your DofE expeditions in the future, but there's absolutely no obligation attached to these clinics.
They're simply our way of offering some useful support to people involved in delivering DofE expeditions.
How does it work?
1. Book your clinic
Email us and we’ll organise a convenient time for your free 30-minute online session.
2. Tell us what you'd like to discuss
You can let us know what you're hoping to talk about when you book, or simply bring your questions along on the day.
3. Have a conversation
We'll meet online for a relaxed, one-to-one conversation focused on your expedition and the things you'd like help with.
4. Take away some practical ideas
Our aim is for you to finish the session feeling clearer, more confident and better equipped to move forward.
Not sure whether your question is suitable for a clinic? Don't worry – if it's related to DofE expeditions, we'd be happy to chat.
LIFE, IT’S YOUR ADVENTURE!
