Adventurous activities

We’re known for our love of adventure, which is why the ideal Scout programme includes a healthy dose of thrill seeking, whether you’re outside or in.

Approving Activities in Blacktoft Beacon

POR (rule 9.1) states that “the District Lead Volunteer is responsible for approving all activities for Squirrel Scouts, Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scouts and Explorer Scouts. This will usually be by means of an informal system agreed between the District Lead Volunteer and each Group Lead Volunteer or 14-24 Team Leader”. 

This documents the delegated responsibilities for authorising activities under POR Rule 9.1 in Blacktoft Beacon District.
