Adult Support

Adult Support starts from that initial chat between a potential volunteer and a member of Scouting. Managers and Leaders start them off on their volunteer’s journey.

All potential volunteers will go through the appointment process to ensure our young people are protected and to ensure the volunteer is welcomed and is comfortable about what they will do. Appointments Secretaries are the key to this process.

From day one, Adult Training offers support and courses to develop all our volunteers to be effective and enjoy their time in Scouting.

Our Adults are valued in many ways from a smile and a thank-you, to formal Awards.

HM King Charles III has been confirmed as our new Patron, a great honour for UK Scouts.

The King continues a long tradition of the monarch giving their Patronage, dating back to 1912. This was when Scouts was granted its Royal Charter and HM George V became our first Patron.
