King’s Scout Award

The King’s Scout Award is the highest honour in Scouting and is awarded for outstanding personal achievement.

This honour is achieved by young people aged between 16 and 25 who have completed a range of challenges, which includes service to their community, completing an expedition in wild country, undertaking a five-day residential project in an unfamiliar environment and learning a new skill or developing an existing talent.

King’s Scout Award recipients are invited to the annual parade at Windsor Castle to celebrate their achievement.

If you are interested in working towards your King’s Scout Award (and for anyone who is already working on it) you can find all of the requirements for the award here.

To make sure that there will be people there to support you through the process and with your work let our King’s Scout Award Advisors Linda Brown and Becca Bee know by sending them an email. They can help you to find and read about the many resources that are available to help you work out what to do. You should also, let your Explorer or Network Unit leader know that you plan to complete the award.
