Bronze Award expeditions
Information about DofE Bronze Award expeditions
These expeditions are suitable for anyone enrolled onto the Bronze DofE Award. They are the complete package for your Bronze expedition section, from training to assessment.
The first day will be a training day to complete the DofE expedition training framework, followed by a two-day assessed expedition.
We will upload a completed assessor report to the participants eDofE account to show evidence of having completed the expedition section.
These are residential packages. Hampshire Outdoors will provide group kit including tents, stoves, gas, maps and compasses. Participants will need to provide all other personal kit.
We will send you information, such as kit list and itinerary, 6 weeks beforehand. We will provide a virtual meeting to talk you thorough the expedition experience and answer any questions that you may have.
These expeditions are open to participants outside of Hampshire as well as those living in Hampshire.
