Activities
Our activity finder is bursting with programme ideas, and can be searched by section, time, cost, setting, type or learning outcomes.
Badges
Master something you love, or try something shiny and new. These badges allow a young person to gain whichever badge is appropriate to the level they have reached.
Nights away
Whether camping, hostelling, or sleepovers, nights away form an integral part of Scouts, which every young person should have an opportunity to take part in.
POR
Scouts’ Policy Organisation and Rules (POR) provides support and guidance to help us all run Scouts.
Training
Learn more about the training for your role and how you can prepare young people with skills for life.
Volunteer with Scouts
Giving back will improve your wellbeing, equip you with skills for the future, and help you make a positive impact on the lives of young people.
