The Founder of Scouting had a vision from which a Movement has grown, so that Scouting is found today in every corner of the land. Scouting happens principally in Scout Groups, Explorer Scout Units and Scout Networks, wherever boys and girls meet to enjoy the Scout programme. The function of all the other units in the Movement is to enhance the quality of provision of that programme at local level. Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society We give our 6–18-year-olds the skills they need for school, college, university, the job interview, the important speech, the tricky challenge, and the big dream. Being part of The Scout Association does not stop when you reach 18 years of age. We welcome people over the age of 18 years of age to join us as part of our Leadership team.
