The DofE Card is available to everyone who is involved with the DofE and their family. However, the DofE Card and digital DofE Card should not be passed onto friends.
Parents and family can use either the physical DofE Card or download the digital DofE Card to their wallet, but they will not be sent their own card.
Your family are able to make savings on all eligible purchases across all the stores and websites – not just clothing and kit for a DofE expedition.
