Beaudesert has long been a popular base for Duke of Edinburgh Award expeditions. Our unique location on Cannock Chase, along with our woodland, open fields, and varied terrain provide the perfect environment for practice and qualifying expeditions at all levels. We can provide accommodation before, during and after expeditions, a base for your expedition and emergency contacts. Talk to our team to find out how we can support your DofE group.
We are also offering our site for groups to do expeditions in "Restricted Spaces". DofE have used this as an alternative option for many years but is not widely known about. You can do a bronze or silver expedition on the ground of Beaudesert without ever needing to leave. We can provide resources and guides for programmes for the young people to lead their own expeditions for accessible, alternatives to traditional expeditions. We have guides for Teambuilding, History, Nature, Art and Photography programmes. Navigation and a host of tasks can be done on site. We can hire out tents and cooking facilities for groups who do not have them but would still like to use the site for DofE. Please contact the team if you would like to discuss options.
