Welcome to the Slemish College Duke of Edinburgh's Award site.

The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is a voluntary, non-competitive programme of leisure activities for all young people from their 14th to the 25th birthdays, and designed to offer a personal and individual challenge.

It would usually take a participant between 6-12 months to complete a Bronze Award; 12-18 months for a Silver Award and 18-24 months for a Gold Award. It may take less time for completion of the Silver or Gold Awards if the participant holds the preceding Award.
