The Duke of Edinburgh's Award

Sourcing the right product for your trip shouldn't be an expedition.. let Vango and The Duke of Edinburgh's Award guide you!

Knowing the right product to buy for Duke of Edinburgh's Award expeditions can often be the first challenge faced by participants. To make this easier, the Award and Vango have worked together to recommend a specific range of Vango products, including a collection of tents, sleeping bags, rucsacs and sleep mats.

Both Vango and the Award have conducted extensive field testing and have earmarked these products as being performance led, easy to use and suitable for the variable conditions encountered by Award Participants and leaders. You will be able to recognise them in store and on the website by this tag:

The selected products are on sale now at Active. Not only will you know you are getting great quality products, but for every item purchased, Vango will make a donation back to the D of E Award to support their work with more young people.

We also supply Burton McCall and Craghoppers products as recomended by the D of E Award.
