DofE Bronze Expeditions for Schools and Groups

The first step on the adventures of DofE Expeditions!

We run our DofE Bronze expeditions at a suitable location close to where you are based and have built up a range of areas perfectly suited to Bronze expeditions with well chosen campsites offering the right level of facilities.

Initial training and planning is delivered on site at your location by our experienced team of staff and our aim is to involve the participants fully from the outset so that they gain ownership of their adventures.

bronze expeditions

We can offer Bronze expeditions in your local area, subject to campsite availability, dates and numbers. We have previously run Bronze in all areas of Wales, the South East and the Midlands. 
We are keen to avoid expedition hotspots and busy times of year wherever possible. 

frequently asked questions

Why are your Bronze numbers limited?

We are aware of the impact some large Bronze expeditions are having on certain areas. We have decided for the time being to concentrate on offering Bronze to smaller groups due to the limited number of dates we can offer. 
Larger numbers will be considered if you are also looking to use our services for Silver and/or Gold expeditions.

What is the difference between the four and six day programmes?

We are keen to offer flexible options for Bronze, so the programmes available are as follows:
4 day programme: A training weekend, followed by a two day Bronze assessment.
5 day programme: A training weekend, practice ‘day’ and a two day Bronze assessment.
6 day programme: Training weekend. Two day Bronze practice. Two day Bronze assessment.

Is equipment provided?

We can provide group equipment, including tents, stoves, maps & compasses. We are unable to provide individual equipment such as rucksacks, sleeping bag, sleeping mats.
