Activity Badges are another way of recognising the achievements of Scouts who have learnt a new skill, or who have taken part in an activity for a certain period of time. Below you will find a list of badges you can gain at Scouts. Badge requirements are avalable on the Scout Association Website.

Since the Activity Badges cover a wide range of subjects, it is unlikely that any Scout Leader will have the expertise needed to assess all of these badges. Wherever possible, an appropriate assessor should be found. This may be a Leader or Helper in another Section or another group, a Young Leader, a member of the Scout Fellowship or a parent/carer. In some cases, use of an external assessor is appropriate, for example, using a fire-fighter to assess the Fire Safety Badge.
