Young Carer
Distance Learning Hub by the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Perth & Kinross SCIO
As a young carer, you take care of a family member or someone close to you. It is a demanding job and a very important one! You should be very proud of what you do. Read below how you can count this to your DofE Volunteering section.
Volunteer for 1 hour every week on the project of your choice or choose a different one each week. You can do this for 12 or 24 weeks depending on what Award you are completing.

With the encouragement and practical support of the staff at the Perth and Kinross Association, get inspired by our collection of Activity Modules, designed to help guide you through your Duke of Edinburgh Sections with exercises, activities and fun ideas to complete your Skill, Physical and Volunteering Sections and prepare for your Expedition.
The Distance Learning Hub is accessible to all. However, some of our courses and modules require specific resources. Anyone who enrolls with the PK Dofe Association will be provided with those resources for free. To enroll or ask any questions please click the “Get Support” button above.
We constantly try to improve our modules on the Distance Learning Hub to provide you with the best learning experience possible. If you have a couple of minutes, we would really appreciate some feedback on this module!
