Frequently Asked Question

I am not yet 15. Can I still take part in the Silver Award, and if so, how?

Last Updated about a month ago

Yes. You can take part in the Silver Award before you turn 15, provided that you are in Year 10 (or the equivalent) at school.

You can also take part as long as you will be aged 15 by the end of August in the year of your assessed Silver expedition.

If you are unsure whether you are eligible, please contact the JLGB DofE team and we will be happy to advise you.
