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 Advisor Linda Brown know by sending her an email here. Linda can help you to find and read about the many resources that are available to help you work out what to do. Also, let your Explorer or Network Unit leader know that you are doing it.

 

 

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.
