Award Support Hubs

Support Hubs are free Hubs available to everyone involved with The Award where participants, parents and coordinators can come for expert advice, help and to enroll in The Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award.
At a Support Hub, trained coordinators are available to help you decide which activities you want to do for your Award, provide advice and guidance on where to access those activities and answer any questions you may have as well as assisting to plan Adventurous Journeys.

Our virtual hubs are available for you to book a teams or phone call throughout the day to be able to meet with your Award Leader, whether it’s by yourself or with a group of friends doing the Award with you. To enable us to serve the large number of participants we support, our in person hubs now run infrequently and will be published when they are available

If you can’t find a time that works for you, reach out to us at dofe@aucklandchallenge.org.nz and we can help to organise a time!

_{Safety at Virtual Support Hubs: When you book an appointment you can choose to have your meeting recorded, you may request recording is started/stopped at any time throughout the meeting and you may request a copy of this recording from Auckland Challenge. If you are under 18 we strongly encourage you to let a guardian know you are attending an online meeting. All our staff are Police vetted by the Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award.}
