Scout Network (18-25)

All members of the Scout movement between 18 and 25 are members of the Scout Network or Scout Active Support Unit.

As a member of Scout Network or a SASU you could be;

• A Leader in another section
• A sectional assistant or skills instructor
• A member in another capacity

Local networks or SASU can be based at County, District or Group Level, some may be based around a specific activity or a gang show, activity centre.

Scout Network or SASU programmes reflect the huge variation in members interests. Some Local Networks will have activities concentrating on a one area of a programme, whilst others will have a wider range. One of the key elements is the opportunity to spend nights away’s, either under canvas or in the other accommodation.

Adult Leaders

Successful Scouting depends on the quality, commitment and enthusiasm of its adult leadership volunteers who freely give up their time to help the development of young people.  All leaders are required to undertake training to equip themselves for their roles. The movement’s training has become recognised by professional trainers as one of the best of its kind.
