Scout Badges
You've earned some badges, well done! Look below to find out where they need to go..
Staged and Activity Badges
Master something you love, or try something shiny and new. If it spurs you on or stirs your interest, we’ve probably got a badge for it.
Many of the badges available are activity badges, which allow Scouts to show their progress in existing pursuits, but also to try all kinds of new things and form new interests.
Staged Activity Badges are available to young people from Beavers to Explorers, and cover a range of topics and skills. The stages have increasing levels of difficulty, and a Beaver can begin at whichever stage offers them an appropriate level of challenge.
Core Badges
There are a number of core badges, obtained upon joining or moving on from the Troop, or for time spent in the Scouting movement.
Challenge Badges
Scouts start small but think big, always challenging themselves to do more and be more. It starts with an award. Who knows where it might lead?
Gaining a challenge badge involves accomplishing a number of more ambitious tasks within the Troop or community. There are several challenge badges across a number of themes, from the physical and outdoorsy to challenges dealing with the local community or issues connected with the Scouting world.
