Being a Scout
When you join Scouts, you’ll be introduced to lots of new activities, people and things.
Awards
Scouts start small but think big, always challenging themselves to do more and be more. It starts with an award. Who knows where it might lead?
Activity and Staged Badges
Master something you love, or try something shiny and new. If it spurs you on or stirs your interest, we’ve probably got a badge for it.
Moving up to Explorers
Eventually, it’ll be time embrace your next big adventure.
Uniform and badge placement
You don’t need a uniform to join Scouts. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them.
Scout Promise
The Promise is a simple way to help young people and adults celebrate their shared Scout values
Our Code of Conduct

Scout accessories
From t-shirts to lunch boxes, water bottles and scratch poster to keep track of your achievements, we have it all.
Scout leaders
All of our leaders are trained volunteers working to make Scouts the best it can be, but we don’t just need swashbuckling adventurers to lead our expeditions. We also need tidy-uppers and tea-makers and great listeners from all walks of life – for as much or as little time as they can spare.
