Meet the team: Bec & Ainsley

In the lead up to our Challenge we're going to be introducing you to the DofE Scotland team. We want you to be able to get to know us and hear a bit about how we're getting ready for the Challenge. Mostly we're feeling pretty daunted, so if you can help encourage us that'd be great! Below the video there's more about how to get in touch.

First up are Bec and Ainsley. They both work from home so it's nice for us in the office to hear what they're up to for training and what they're looking forward to. We hope that you are interested in what they think of the Challenge too, so have a watch here...


If you have any questions about our Challenge get in touch here on the blog, or you can find us on Twitter @DofEScotland #DofEChallenge, Facebook and you can even email us at Scotland@DofE.org

Don't forget that you can support us by donating to our Challenge - all donations go to supporting disadvantaged young people here in Scotland.

Our Challenge starts here

We're launching the DofE Diamond Challenge today. The Challenge is a year-long fundraising activity to raise money for The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Charity and mark its Diamond Anniversary. Throughout 2016 anyone and everyone will be asked to ‘choose a challenge’ from three DofE-inspired themes: learn a skill, embark on an adventure or conquer a personal challenge, and raise a minimum of £60 (for 60 years) for the Charity.

This is the DofE Scotland team's Challenge and it's a biggie!
