Child & Youth Safety
Information for Parents and Scouts
Scouting offers fun adventures for boys and girls ages 5 – 26 allowing them to discover new things and experiences they wouldn’t find elsewhere. We know that young people thrive in safe surroundings. Therefore we are committed to ensuring that Scouting provides the most secure environment possible for leaning, development and fun.
Parents participating in their children’s Scouting activities is a big part of our formula for a fun, dynamic and safe environment for leaving and growth. Your enthusiasm and knowledge are always welcome and so are your alert eyes and ears.
In the section you will find a number of tools and resources regarding Child and Youth Safety.
