Brand& Marketing Partnerships
Brand and Marketing Partnerships
The DofE offers numerous opportunities for businesses and brands to partner with us and connect with our diverse audience of young people, parents and carers, and volunteers. Here’s why to partner with us…
- Extensive reach: 40% of 14-year-olds in the UK participate in the Bronze DofE Award.
- Improve social mobility: Support ambitious and motivated young people from all backgrounds who are investing personal and practical skills for the future.
- Digital engagement: our audiences are aware of brands, products, and causes, and actively engage with those they follow and support.
Our Marketing Partnerships team will work with you to understand your business, marketing objectives and interest in working with the DofE. Our partnerships generate funding for the DofE charity so we can support young people to do their DofE, who otherwise could not afford to do it.
With over 300,000 young people starting their DofE each year, more than 3million web visits, and social platforms with over 50,000 followers there are many ways that you can raise your brand awareness and engage our audiences.
We’d love to work with you to make a positive impact on the next generation. For more details on our marketing partnership options, please select the icons below.

Young people aged 14-24 have a range of interests and needs when doing, and after, their DofE.
Our themed campaigns feature multiple partners, and offer the opportunity for businesses to reach a larger audience through a cost-effective, non-exclusive way.
Our young people and supporters remember the DofE, and what it did for them, and by working with us you can not only reach new customers but demonstrate your commitment to developing young people across the UK.
