Complete Bronze through four sections - Volunteering, Physical, Skills and Expedition - with cadet activities supporting your progress. Plan and train with a team for a qualifying expedition lasting at least two days and one night.

The Army Cadets Duke of Edinburgh’s Bronze Award lets you work towards the first level of the DofE while taking part in cadet activities that support your progress. It is designed around personal development, helping you build confidence, teamwork and independence as you complete the award through regular participation and goal setting.

To achieve Bronze, you complete four sections: Volunteering, Physical, Skills and Expedition. Volunteering might involve helping your community or an approved cause, while the Physical and Skills sections encourage you to improve fitness and develop a practical, creative or personal skill.

The Expedition section brings the award together through team planning, training and a qualifying journey lasting at least two days and one night.

Army Cadets can support you with suitable activities, navigation and expedition training, recording progress and choosing assessors. Not every cadet activity automatically counts, so you need to make sure your plans meet the official DofE rules and are agreed with your DofE Leader.

Bronze typically takes a minimum of six months to complete.
