It is a group of adults who have
one thing in common - a wish to support Scouting. A
Scout Fellowship welcomes men and women of all ages,
interests and backgrounds. There is no need to have
been involved in Scouting or Guiding before, all that
is required is a willingness to give some of your time
to Scouting. In return you will make friends and be
able to join with others doing whatever you decide.
A Scout Fellowship has its own social and activity programme.
The aim of the Scout Fellowship
is "Providing Active Support", with the emphasis
being very much on supporting the youth programme in
an active manner, at all levels of the Association from
the local Scout Group to National level.
Active Support encompasses the talents of the Scout
Fellowship of all ages and abilities, whether it is
physical, mental, geared to a particular technical skill
or general support. It could be as a badge examiner,
a mentor to new leaders, catering for courses, running
pioneering courses, assisting with hill walking, rock
climbing etc. We all have something to offer as far
as supporting Scouting is concerned whatever our age
or ability.
In fact, active support means just about anything!
The Scout Fellowship is a large part of the 'backbone'
of the Scout Movement - supporting the young people
and voluntary leaders wherever help is required. The
key to our success is our flexibility - we're here to
help.
The easiest way is to complete

contact with the local Fellowship Chairman who will
be able to answer any specific questions.
