Lupine Adventure and the Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

Lupine Adventure Co-operative are an Approved Activity Provider for the Expedition section of The Duke of Edinburgh's Award. We can work with groups that are already established (though a school or youth group) and with individuals who we bring together to form a group (an open award).  We can conduct training anywhere in the country or simply supervise and assess your expeditions.

Please read on for more information.

For groups...

Lupine Adventure Co-operative are available to help schools, local authorities and youth groups provide the Duke of Edinburgh's Award to the young people that they serve. We do this by taking on the expedition part of The Award. We can train your group and then provide qualified Mountain Leaders and Assessors to supervise and Assess the expedition. Alternatively if you wish to train the group yourselves we can simply provide the supervision for the expedition itself. Read on for more information on our services for schools and youth groups.

...and individuals

We also run Open Award programmes. If you have done the expedition training but couldn't take part in either your practice or qualifying expeditions then you can join in an open expedition. Alternatively if you need to do the training and practice too then we also run Open Award programmes that include the training, practice expedition and qualifying expedition in two 5 day blocks.

Why Lupine Adventure?

Lupine Adventure Co-operative is a not for profit, Social Enterprise made up of qualified Mountain Leaders and Youth Workers. We are able to run the whole award, the expedition part of The Award or simply help with the training. We have a pool of equipment that can be used by the participants and can even help the young people or your organisation apply for the funding to pay for it if your budget does not stretch.
