The Scout method

Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.

Scouting takes place when young people, in partnership with adults, work together based on the values of Scouting and:

• enjoy what they are doing and have fun;
• take part in activities indoors and outdoors;
• learn by doing;
• share in spiritual reflection;
• take responsibility and make choices;
• undertake new and challenging activities;
• make and live by their Promise.
