📣 Across the UK there are 42 prisons running the DofE.

Young people in the prison service are among the most marginalised in society and doing their DofE in prison gives them a chance to turn their lives around on release.

It’s great see the DofE sharing their incredible work with young people within the Prison Service - giving more young people a chance to turn their lives around on release. Read more here: https://t.co/ROta8Gf0Tm @MGlassup @AGlassup @hmyoifeltham @hmpps

Fantastic effort and achievement for 3 of our boys, to gain the latest @DofE Bronze award. They cycled 600 miles between them, over 2 days, with an overnight expedition camp in between. Well deserved, boys!!👏👍💪🙌🚴‍♀️👏 @hmpps @RehabilitativeT

[Emily_DofE @DofeEmily]

Fantastic to see as always! Well done to those young people on completing their Bronze Awards 🎉

[@HMYOIFeltham @hmyoifeltham]

Another successful internal @DofE expedition this week. Ten young adults worked towards gaining their full Award, showing great teamwork and developing strong leadership skills by:

🏕️setting up tents
🗺️orienteering
🍳cooking on camp stoves

A big well done to all involved!

A day out yay! Great to meet colleagues from the Youth Justice (Secure Estate) national working group today in London to look at how we can engage more young people from marginalised backgrounds with a quality #DofE programme!

Huge congratulations @MGlassup we are very lucky to have you on our team.

[Tim Peake @astro_timpeake]

Congratulations to everyone doing their @DofE expeditions this term. Not easy in this heat or the torrential rain☀️⛈️🥾⛺️

It’s past experiences like this that give us the resilience to face future challenges. When you build on each experience you’ll be amazed where it can lead to. #adastra

Our 100th @parkrun 🧡

[@HMYOIFeltham @hmyoifeltham]

Today we delivered a number of refurbished bikes to @Sue_Ryder & collected another batch for our learners to work on in the workshop.
The YA's are working towards @cityandguilds qualifications & completing evidence for their @DofEawards, all whilst giving back to the community.

This may look like a photo of a “normal” conference. It was far from it…the room was full of business and prison leaders working to get more ex offenders into work. With over 90 Employment Advisory Boards in place we’re on the way to getting a third of prison leavers in to work.

@salvationarmyuk works with @HMPFiveWells upcycling clothes and furniture - a great way to promote #rehabilitation whilst saving items from going to landfill ♻️

Great visit to @HMPSwinfenHall this morning. Amazing to see one young person has completed three sections of his DofE Award, great achievement! Loved hearing about how he organised a food bank collection for the local community 👏

[@HMYOIFeltham @hmyoifeltham]

This month our young adults serviced & refurbished 8 pre-loved bikes that we take to the local @Sue_Ryder shop to sell 🚲

It's a great initiative for the young adults to give back to the community while gaining new skills that also contribute towards their @DofE evidence.

Fantastic achievement! Would it be #DofE without rain?! Thanks for giving these children the opportunity to have this experience through the programme. ❤️

[HMYOI Wetherby @HMYOI_Wetherby]

More of our children working toward their Duke of Edinburgh award. This one was an 18 mile walk of Whernside and Ingleborough in the Yorkshire Dales...taking them 6 hours. Great effort lads!!👏💪🥾
