DofE Expeditions

North East Guides will design a programme of training and expeditions tailored to your group, with prices starting from £35.00 per person per day.

Most of our DofE expeditions take place in Northumberland, usually within the National Park. We will use other areas, such as the Yorkshire Dales, if that is more convenient for your school/organisation.

Our comprehensive and high quality service ensures that your life as a DofE leader will be made as easy as possible.

Included as part of the package:

  • Comprehensive pre-expedition paperwork pack for participants and parents, including consent forms and kit lists etc.
  • Assistance with expedition paperwork. We will complete operating authority notifications, green forms and risk assessments.
    High quality training, delivered at a location convenient for you.
  • Training materials and helpful handouts for participants.
  • Supervision throughout the expeditions from experienced and friendly instructors.
  • Accredited assessors for the qualifying expedition.
  • Free use of our group kit, which includes:
    • Tents
    • Stoves, Pans and Fuel
    • Group Shelters
    • First Aid Kits
    • Maps
    • Compasses

Supervision of groups

If you train a group yourselves, we can provide qualified Mountain Leaders experienced in remote supervision to run and assess the expeditions.

Please note we may have to charge an additional travel fee to cover costs of getting our staff to and from the location of the expedition.

Open Expeditions

We can provide Open Bronze, Silver and Gold Expeditions by arrangement. These will include a training day, where we will plan the route and cover any last minute needs. For more details, or to discuss your requirements, please email, or give us a call.
