Information for Parents
D of E has been running at Queen's Road Baptist Church for over 10 years. Over these years, more than 200 awards have been achieved, and we currently have over 100 young people on our books.
Our Duke of Edinburgh Award group, has always been run by volunteer leaders and helpers, who give up their Friday evenings and various weekends in the year to make our group the success it has been over the years. All of these leaders have been through our church's 'Safe-To-Grow' child protection policy, and are currently in the process of applying for CRB Police Checks.
In January of 2005, 16 of our leaders went on a training weekend at Plas Doly-Moch. The majority of the leaders went on the Walking Group Leader(WGL) training course, which was an intensive 30 hour training course, spread over three days.
All Expedition weekends away, at all levels, are supervised by a team of leaders. The amount of contact and level of supervision varies with each level, with closer supervision at the Bronze and Silver levels than at Gold, where generally participants are over 18.
If you have any further questions or comments about our DofE group, then please contact the leadership team who will be happy to help.
