Participation
Awards
These badges are awarded to celebrate a young person's commitment to
Scouting and for taking an active part in the programme.
If the young person has already been a Member, the badges will continue
from those earned in previous sections.
For those Scouts who have been a Beaver Scout or Cub Scout, you will
need to liaise with their leaders to check the date of the last award.
The participation badges are numbered. You can award a participation
badge every twelve months from the time the Scout joins your Troop, up
to a maximum of four badges.
