Today’s young people are dedicated, inspired and ambitious. You’ve risen to the challenges of the COVID-19 outbreak, playing your part in your communities and helping those who need your support.
But we know the pandemic has hit some young people’s mental health and wellbeing hard. It’s put your education, social lives and work on hold and, for some, led to increased stress, worry and loneliness.
As a new school year starts, the DofE can give you the chance to develop skills and characteristics that can help you navigate our new world.
Your DofE can help you build the confidence and resilience you need to get through this crisis, and help you stand out, open doors and thrive in the future.
Our animations tell the real-life stories of four DofE Award holders, in their own words. Hear how, through their DofE, they overcame personal challenges, found focus and motivation and achieved things they never thought they would.
