Our UK Youth Ambassadors

As a DofE Youth Ambassador you will take part in exciting, high-profile events, both in-person and online. Throughout the programme you’ll also have the opportunity to share your DofE story and network with Award holders and supporters at events taking place regionally, UK wide and internationally.

You will be invited to support teams from across the DofE charity ranging from Fundraising to External Affairs. This is a great way to inspire others to take part in the DofE programme and demonstrate the positive impact doing the DofE can have on the lives of young people.

Take a look at some of the events Youth Ambassadors have previously attended:

Join essential conversations happening at the heart of the DofE. Through these valued discussions, you can share your ideas and feedback, to influence key decisions across the charity. Recently, Youth Ambassadors have been able to shape changes to the Residential section and have taken part in discussions about the Award globally, hosted by the International Award Foundation.

Join our advocacy efforts as a charity and become the voice of your generation. This is a fantastic opportunity to express your views to policymakers, ensuring the perspectives of young people are considered when it comes to decisions which impact your future.

Youth Ambassadors regularly feature on DofE’s social media channels and website. From writing blogs to co-creating videos, content creation is a key part of the role. In the past Youth Ambassadors have raised awareness of the Skills section of the Award by filming a video for World Youth Skills Day and several were spotlighted in the DofE’s People like YOUth film series.
