The Duke of Edinburgh's Award

For 70 years, The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award has been supporting young people with their personal growth. Whatever their ability, interest or background, the DofE offers young people the chance to strive for achievement, overcome obstacles, and set their minds to a personal challenge.  

We’re partnering with the DofE on an exciting new project that will bring innovation to the way young people can achieve their Award. The project will offer exciting new ways for young people to build on their passion for sport as part of their DofE Award. With decades of experience in youth-led growth, we know the team at the DofE share our vision for young people and we know this project has huge potential to make real, tangible impact.

“We’re delighted the Ferdinando and Luigi Innocenti Foundation is supporting The Duke of Edinburgh's Award (DofE) charity’s vital work over the next two years. By expanding inclusive sport pathways, more young people will have the opportunity to get active, build confidence and develop new skills through their DofE. A huge thank you to the foundation.” Dave Sharpe, Acting Director of UK Strategic Programmes and Development, The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award
