A New Era for Explorers is coming

This summer, we’re launching a brand-new Explorer Scout programme — redesigned with today’s 14–18 year olds in mind. Built from research with thousands of young people and volunteers, this is all about making Explorers more relevant, flexible and impactful than ever before.

👀 Want to know what’s changing?

We’re running “Welcome to the New Explorers Programme” sessions to help you get ahead of the game.

These sessions will cover:

Why the programme is changing
What the new Explorer programme looks like
New badges, challenges and opportunities
Training and support available to you
Real examples from units who’ve already tested it
This isn’t just a refresh — it’s a chance to make Explorers even more exciting, relevant and youth-shaped for the future.

Watch out for the dates of the sessions and let us know which session you’re planning to attend ….
