As we reflect on Prince Philips’s legacy of The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, particularly this day during his funeral, we had the opportunity to give an interview on Black Country Radio this morning (20 minutes!) about the DofE, the Expedition section, and their importance and positive impact for the development of young people ☺️

Our interview is from 1:23:30 www.blackcountryradio.co.uk/radioplayer/od/items/black-country-week-17th-april/

Thank you Prince Philip for your vision, passion and support for young people with the founding of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. We are proud to be a part of such an amazing opportunity for young people and will continue to honour your legacy in delivering the Expedition section to the values, ethos and spirit that are so important for developing the greatest benefits for young people from their participation. ...

Although it is sad times with the loss of Prince Philip, The Duke of Edinburgh, we have had a great couple of weeks which has seen us deliver Bronze DofE expedition training at Wolgarston High School (Penkridge) and continued Gold DofE expedition training at Alderbrook School (Solihull). We’ve also delivered another of our popular 2-day Outdoor First Aid courses to 18 DofE Leaders from Warwick Independent Schools Foundation. This week see us at the Long Mynd Adventure Camp for our 5-day Sports Leaders Level 3 Qualification in Lowland Expedition Leadership course, attended by DofE Leaders from across the UK, who are taking part to learn and develop the soft and hard skills necessary to successfully deliver the DofE Expedition section to young people in a way that meets not only the aims and benefits of the section itself, but also those of the wider DofE programme. HRH would definitely approve of this ☺️

Last week we held a staff training/update day at Blackwell Adventure, Bromsgrove. The day was attended by 20+ of our freelance team (50+) and we were able to update them on a variety of new and existing projects we are working on, as well as introduce them to our new ‘DofE Expedition Section Best Practice Guide’. The guide outlines various aspects of the Expedition section that we expect all of our staff team to follow and deliver. Not ‘the CTS way’, but the way as intended and developed by the DofE, which allows young people to gain the most enjoyment and benefit from their participation. This will ensure we remain at ‘the top of our game’ and a leading AAP that upholds the quality of delivery and engagement with young people that we are renowned for. We also had time to enjoy some ‘high ropes’ activities and have some fun, as shown in the photos 😊

We continue to work alongside the DofE, supporting the ‘Bridging the Gap’ project and have had various conversations with a range of community based organisations about delivering the Level 3 Qualification in Lowland Expedition Leadership and 2-day Outdoor First Aid courses to their staff, as well as supporting their young people with the Expedition section.

Our ‘open’ DofE expeditions during the half-term week at the end of May are nearly full, with 26 participants registered for the Gold week and 27 participants registered for the Bronze & Silver week. Our other “open’ expeditions, planned for July and August, are also filling up nicely and we expect to be fully subscribed for these as well 😊

Finally, we are continuing to increase the number of schools that we work with for the delivery of the DofE Expedition section, not only for this academic year, but also for the 2021/22 academic year. This is a great testament, not only to the quality of delivery but also, from the comments of DofE Leaders from these schools, of how our reputation for engaging with young people ‘over and above’ other providers is well established and known 😊 ...
