Duke of Edinburgh



Whatever their ability, interest or background, DofE offers young people the chance to strive for achievement, overcome obstacles, and set their minds to a personal challenge. Because when you prove to yourself that you’re ready for anything, nothing can hold you back. Our Founder HRH Prince Philip once said: “There is more in you than you might think.” And, here at the DofE, we help you realise that.

Every year, The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) inspires hundreds of thousands of young people to develop skills, resilience and self-belief. Through DofE, they take on their own challenges, follow their passions, make a difference to their communities and discover talents they never knew they had.

Welcome to the DofE. Welcome to Youth Without Limits.
