The DofE provides limited personal accident insurance which covers payment of a certain benefit(s) in the event of a participant or adult helper sustaining accidental bodily injury whilst taking part in an approved DofE activity. As a condition of their Operating Licence, each Operating Authority must also arrange Public Liability Insurance, which will cover any claims against them for injury or damage caused to, or by, young people and adults doing a DofE programme.
However, please note that the insurance does not provide cover for any personal belongings or equipment damaged or lost whilst doing a DofE activity. It will also not cover your child for any injury or damage caused to them whilst undertaking an activity arranged by you with an external organisation, you will need to check what cover is provided by the activity provider.
