I always thought you could but i may be wrong.
It might be worth having a quick search on the internet to find out.

Yes but I think you may have to do volunteering and stuff for a bit longer, though.

Yes but it will just take you a bit longer to do.

I don't know what to do for the skills section of it
I am not good at musical instruments
I am going to the gym for the physical section and helping the elderly as my volunteering section

You can even go straight to Gold if you wish although you will have to do longer on volunteering and be over 16.

quote from website

"If you start your Silver without doing Bronze first you’ll have to do an extra 6 months volunteering or doing whichever of the Physical or Skills sections you have spent more time on. Though you can change your mind later, you should decide which section you want to do for longer at the beginning. Knowing how long you’re going to do it for will help you to choose your activity and set your goals for each section.
It will take you at least 6 months for Silver if you've already achieved your Bronze, or 12 months if you've jumped straight into Silver."


The skills section can be a wide variety of things - learn sign language, to knit, to tie knots, some carpentry, learn to drive, photography, a new language. Just be imaginative. A very useful skill is cookery!

It's recommended that you do the previous level, just purely because you have more experience, especially for your expedition which is by far the most challenging aspect. I did bronze, currently doing silver and applying for gold and I must say silver was far easier having done an expedition already. However, you can still do silver without doing bronze just make sure you are prepared for the expedition and your time periods for each category will be longer. Good luck! :biggrin:

They enrolled me onto bronze
( I may be with random people on the expedition as I am the only one doing bronze in my college)
