Amplify Duke of Edinburgh

07/06/2026

13 Gold participants had a great weekend in The Yorkshire Dales walking for well over eight hours a day and completing the three Yorkshire Peaks which involved a total ascent of 1,585 meters (5,200 feet) to conquer the summits of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough. They managed to show that they are more than ready for their qualifier, dealing with some nasty weather and quite a few miles. Well done 👏

Brilliant Silver Qualifying expedition in Yorkshire Dales. 23 lovely participants showed that they have taken in their training and smashed their expedition. All have passed and set the bar for their Gold. Well done 👏

Thanks to all the adult support who made the weekend easier than it should have been.

What did DofE mean to you?

The impact of DofE would not be possible without the people behind it 💜

In 2025/26, an incredible 38,951 Leaders and volunteers supported young people through their DofE.

Together you’ve helped young people clock up a whopping 6 million hours of volunteering – an estimated value of £45.4m 🙌

An overall 5,023 incredible organisations are delivering DofE across the UK, from schools and colleges to community groups, prisons and centres supporting young people with SEND.

Over the last five years, we’ve been working to widen access and remove barriers so more young people can take part in a life-changing Award – but the work doesn't stop here.
