DofE With the Green Party
The Volunteering section of the DofE programme is often the most rewarding, uplifting and memorable part of your DofE adventure. It can, however, sometimes be hard to find a good opportunity for those under the age of 16. If this is you, then we would love to have you with us for your DofE!

One of the key pieces of misinformation that Reform have been peddling, again unchallenged by the media, is that Kent County Council requires auditing.![]()
![]()
The county council is already audited, at huge cost, by its own award winning internal auditors in addition to being audited by Grant Thornton who are their external auditors and who are estimated to cost £488,241 for the last financial year.![]()
![]()
Are Reform really intending on commissioning an additional audit of top of the ones we have already? ![]()
![]()
That would seem to be a huge waste of council tax-payers money, even if they could find another auditor to carry out the work.
