We still have 15% of adults in our county who have not completed the new Scouts Safety learning which is a requirement for all adults.

*The deadline for them to complete this learning is July 14th.*

If you've not done the new learning, please do so.

If you've tried and can't log in or aren't sure how to, please reach out to your district volunteer development team or district lead.

If you've already done it, PLEASE help us by chatting to Scouts volunteers you see regularly and check they've done theirs, helping them if you can.

Let's keep this on the agenda and keep actioning it until every adult volunteer in South London who needs to do the learning has done it.

Let's keep young people safe.

The first international gathering of Scouts was held in 1920. This, the first Jamboree, was held at London’s Olympia for 8,000 Scouts from 34 Countries.

Jamboree is now an international term used to describe a large gathering of Scouts. Since 1920, World Scout Jamborees have been held almost every four years, except during the Second World War, and hosted all over the world.
