Scout Network

Scout Network is the sixth and final section of the Scouting movement. From the time of Baden-Powell, there have been arrangements for young people who wanted to continue after their time in the Scout Section, and in 1967, Venture Scouts were formed from the existing Senior Scout and Rover Scout Sections.

During the late 1990s we decided that, to meet the changing needs of young people, there should be two sections for the over-14s: Explorer Scouts for 14 to 18-year-olds, and the Scout Network for 18 to 25s.

Basics

Scout Network gives opportunities to 18-25 year olds who have an interest in Scouting, their own personal development and having fun.

Programme

Scout Network members take part in a variety of activities, which they undertake and organise themselves under the leadership of a District Scout Network Commissioner and sometimes with the support of a Programme Coordinator.

The Programme is divided into three Programme Areas: Community, International and Adventure.

All young adults, that are members of the association and are aged between 18 and 25 in Scouting are members of the Scout Network.

NI Scouting currently has 16 Scout Network Units. To find details of your nearest Scout Network contact the NI Scout Office 028 9049 2829 or admin1@scoutsni.org
