Multi-outdoor activity and John Muir Award Gold residential (February 2026)
Multi-outdoor activity Gold residential
A DofE residential is an opportunity for a young person to step outside of their usual environment, routine and social setting, giving them the opportunity to find out more about themselves.
To complete your DofE Gold Residential section, join us and take part in a week of outdoor and conservation activities.
Make a difference to our ever-changing planet by getting involved in the John Muir Award, and fulfil his vision to 'connect with, enjoy and care for wild places' in the Lake District.
Join us for activities such as Mountain Walking, Ghyll Scrambling, Canoe journeys, bushcraft, tree planting, fence and path repair, and leave us feeling exhilarated, with another award to add to your CV, as well as a sense of pride.
