Silver Duke of Edinburgh Award
Step Up the Challenge: New Skills, New Venues
The Next Step in Your Adventure
By this stage, most groups have a good idea of their chosen expedition style, but the Silver Award phase provides an ideal opportunity to broaden your horizons.
Why not try something new? This is the perfect time to switch from walking to Canoeing or Kayaking, or to travel to a totally new venue. We have seen a significant increase in participants completing the full journey from Bronze through to Gold, thanks to our progressive approach that keeps the adventure fresh and exciting.
