DofE Expeditions

For young people, the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award offers a unique opportunity to develop important practical and personal skills. But arranging the expedition section can be a challenging and time consuming task. This is where we come in, to take away the stress and confusion.

At A to Z Expeditions we take the pressure off school DofE co-ordinators by planning and delivering tailored expeditions for their students. We also run a range of open DofE expeditions for individuals and small groups.

We work closely with DofE head office and DofE Operating Authorities across the country to ensure our programmes fulfil the DofE Expedition Requirements (20 conditions).

We are also licensed by the Adventurous Activities Licensing Authority, which is a branch of the government health and safety executive.

So you can rest assured our expeditions fulfil Duke of Edinburgh’s Award requirements as well as the strictest safety standards.
