Scouting offers challenge and adventure to 400,000 young people and 100,000 adults across the UK. In our group we do some pretty amazing things, but for us, adventure is a way of life and not just an activity or expedition. Our Scouts grow in confidence by trying out new skills and stretching themselves. Whether it’s our older Scouts trying out their French on an international trip or a Scout leading his Patrol for the first time, each time we challenge ourselves, it’s a step forward. When a Scout stands up to a bully, or sticks up for what they believe in; that’s an adventure.
