Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and Outward Bound
Outward Bound Australia is no longer an Open Award Centre for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Australia.
Outward Bound will continue to deliver Adventurous Journey and Residential Project (Gold level only) but will no longer do all the admin for your Voluntary Service, Physical Recreation and Skill sections of The Award.
The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and Outward Bound were both founded by Kurt Hahn in partnership with HRH Prince Philip The Duke of Edinburgh and Laurence Holt respectively. Both the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and Outward Bound exist to help people achieve their full potential by serving their communities, testing themselves physically, emotionally and socially and pushing themselves out of their comfort zones to experience true growth of character. Both programs have great synergy and we are disappointed by this outcome, but it’s an insurance issue we could not overcome.
