Costs and Funding


DofE Expedition Programme Costs

Lupine Adventure are a not-for-profit, social enterprise without any shareholders or investors. We are also one of the biggest Approved Activity Providers (AAPs) of DofE expeditions in the country. This means that we can deal with both large and small cohorts of participants.

Because of our ‘not-for-profit’ status, the DofE work that we do for schools is exempt from VAT.

The cost of expedition programmes depends on many variables, and usually ranges between £50 and £65 per participant per day. We are always keen to work on the quote with you to enable us to bring the price down and give the best price possible. We’ll even let any trained and / or qualified staff from your school ‘volunteer’ on your expeditions. When this happens we can give you a discount of £180 per member of staff per day.
