New Welcome Packs

We have recently redesigned the participants' Welcome Packs, following consultation with the DofE Network around the UK.

We have spent months travelling around the UK to talk to our network, both adults and participants, about their usage of our DofE Welcome Packs which have been in their current form for five years.

After taking everyone's comments and suggestions into consideration we have produced a new pack

 

The new Welcome Pack

The Bronze, Silver and Gold Welcome Packs each include five elements:

  • Participant's Handbook
  • Assessor Guidance booklet
  • Merchandise leaflet
  • Welcome letter
  • Their new DofE Reward Card (previously the Cotswold card).

These are all packed in transparent flow-wrap and in the new refreshed brand style.

The big difference is the Assessor Guidance booklet. This booklet, with perforated cards to allow easy removal, replaces the old loose Assessor cards and the Keeping Track booklet, combining them into one handy booklet. Young people store this booklet in the flap in the new Participants' Handbook until they need them, detatch and hand guidance cards to their sectional Assessors at the start of their activity, and can keep completed Assessor's Report cards in there once they have photographed and uploaded them into eDofE as before. 


Note: Welcome Packs are sent to those buying DofE Participation Places through the DofE Shop.
