Great to kick off the new #EnrichmentForAll coalition in Parliament last night. Looking forward to working with our fantastic founding partners and supporters across youth, education & philanthropy to give every child and young person access to life-changing enrichment!

Great to have Youth Minister @Steph_Peacock on the @DofE panel today talking about the transformative power of enrichment for young people and her ambitions for the Youth Strategy
Stephanie Peacock MP@Steph_Peacock

Duke of Edinburgh gives young people across the country the chance to develop confidence, resilience & life skills. I saw this firsthand when I visited Barnsley Academy, so it was a pleasure to join a panel at conference today to discuss how we can support young people to thrive.

Great to see the PM launch the Civil Society Covenant today at a historic meeting of Government & civil society. P’ship between voluntary orgs and Govt is vital to rebuilding trust and unleashing the power of people and voluntary action to support each other & improve lives

Thanks for all that you and Michelle do to blaze the trail for @DofE in secure settings Keith! You have showed what is possible and I am so proud that we have expanded our reach significantly in the last few years with DofE now on offer in nearly 40 YOIs and prisons! 🙏🙏🙏
Keith Potter@potts70

A great day yesterday attending a DofE event in the Youth Custody Service. Networking with colleagues from the DofE and the wider YCS community. Some great conversations and examples of great working practice. DofE is for everyone, yesterday showed that. @DofE @MGlassup @hmpps

We welcome the announcement of the new School Sport Partnerships 🙌 This will be supported by an Enrichment Framework to ensure all young people have equal access to high-quality extra-curricular activities. We look forward to working with the Government, alongside other partners, to develop this essential framework 💜
Sport England@Sport_England

We welcome the announcement of the Government’s bold intention to reverse the downward trend on children’s activity levels and address the differences in attitudes and behaviours towards sport and physical activity amongst underserved children, including girls and those with special educational needs. This as a real opportunity to reimagine school sport and requires a coordinated approach that maximises all of the resources and expertise already in our system.

We’re delighted that Government funding, has meant 300 schools in marginalised areas can now access DofE, and we also look forward to working with Minister @CMcKinnellMP and @DfE to shape an enrichment framework to benefit young people. We’d like to thank @Phil_Brickell for tabling the oral question and we look forward to working with him to get even more young people from his constituency of Bolton West to access the award. All young people should be able to access enrichment.

We welcome @DCMS investment in youth work, including additional funds to help expand access to @DofE programmes. But, youth spending is still lower than under the last Govt. and further investment is desperately needed to give young people the start in life they need and deserve.
The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award@DofE

Last week’s government announcement on youth work funding for 2025/26 included a commitment to expanding funding to trusted groups, including the DofE – this means we can work towards giving more young people the opportunity to take part in a life-changing DofE programme.

Here’s an action-packed #FridayRoundUp 💫 Land and Wave had an unforgettable Residential in sunny Dorset with non-stop adventure and perfect weather. Every young person also achieved their Paddle Safer Award and First Aid certification. Climbing sessions are part of WAVE Adventure’s DofE activities, and we must admit, it looked like so much fun with lots of teamwork, challenges, and laughs! Young people from @boxing_futures faced soggy marshlands, night walks, and came back with stories of “resilience, connection, and growth”. Thank you everyone 💜

The vibes this morning in our Bronze @DofE encampment were exquisite. Over half the girls had never camped before. After a night of singing around the campfire, the birds responded - starting with cuckoos calling and ending with a dawn chorus crescendo. We were all up at 5 am, making breakfast, tired but smiling. We have another expedition next weekend - I can’t wait!

Abigail has been busy today litter picking her street for her @DofE, doing a double pick after a busy weekend. Young volunteers like her make a real difference. Litter picking shows caring for our planet is always in style. #Youth #volunteering #Sandwell #tipton

Did you know many of our care homes run regular ‘knit and knatter’ sessions? A chance for people to get to know each other over a cuppa & crafts 🧶🧡 At Windsor Court #carehome in Goole, Harry was eagerly telling everyone about meeting the royal family after completing his @DofE!
