Welcome to the adventure
As a parent of a child in Scouting, we would like to welcome you to the Scouting
family.* We know that you play a big part in your child’s involvement in Scouting, through both practical help and encouragement. We would therefore like to say a big THANK YOU for all you do and hope that the following information is useful to you.
* If your child is not yet in Scouting and you are looking for some joining information please go to www.scouts.org.uk/join
Whether your child is new to Scouting, or has been a Member for some time, you will find information here to help you make their experience an enjoyable one. You will also find out ways in which you can get involved with Scouting.
One of 28 million!

Your child is now one of a family of 28 million young people in 216 countries and territories who join in the fun and adventure of Scouting every week. The experiences your son or daughter has as a Scout are likely to stay with them for the rest of their lives.
