The Cobras are proud to support young people in completing their Duke of Edinburgh Award in both Bracknell and Slough. Our program provides comprehensive assistance for participants at all levels—Bronze, Silver, and Gold—ensuring they fulfill the necessary requirements in volunteering, physical activity, and skill development. We offer a structured environment where participants can thrive and achieve their goals, and we also complete the online assessor's report to streamline the process.
Volunteering: Participants can gain valuable experience and give back to the community through various volunteering opportunities:
-
