Getting more people involved in DofE
Back in 2016, Girlguiding members took on the Diamond Challenge.
Together you raised an amazing £31,00 for DofE. This was match-funded by DofE and the #iwill foundation, as part of the DofE’s initiative to get more disadvantaged young people doing their DofE.
For more information, see our blog on the Diamond Fund.
Current national Diamond Fund opportunities
- We are able to help fund training on Mountain Training UK and British Canoeing courses for leaders who will use this to support girls on DofE expeditions. If you are wanting to train, or re-train or have recently trained at an external course provider, get in touch with us so cover your costs.
- We are running a free Hill and Moorland Leader course at Waddow Hall on 15-17 October 2021 at Waddow Hall. For more information, and to book, see the event page on our Activity Centres website.
- We're offering groups in areas of disadvantage, or who operate over a wide area including areas of disadvantage, the chance to apply for expedition equipment from GO Outdoors. We've contacted all groups that are eligible directly. If you think are eligible, and missed out, get in touch.
