Everything we are doing to support young people

Current Readiness Level is:

Getting back together safely – Information for Leaders

We’re working with youth sector partners and the National Youth Agency government body to make sure that we restart safely. There’s a framework and set of guidance that should be followed when your section gets back together, based on the latest government announcements and current readiness levels.


Getting back together safely – Information for Parents

Information for parents from The Scout Association on how Groups are approaching getting back together face to face in a Covid safe way.

Risk Assessments and information for Parents

Face 2 face meetings can not be restarted while the readiness level from The Scouts is Red and volunteer Leaders are happy to restart face 2 face scouting. The readiness level needs to be Amber, Yellow or Green for face 2 face Scouting to happen.

For your Scout to be able to attend face 2 face meetings you need to have consciously opted in and acknowledge that you are happy for your Scout to attend. We are not allowed to use assumed consent of you dropping them off to us.

We will deal with this opt in acknowledgement via an OSM event where you sign up and accept the Risk Assessment and instructions along with acknowledging that you have explained these to your Scout.
