Scout Community Safety Badge

Last updated: 18/08/2010 Add to My Bookmarks

The Scout Community Safety Badge has been completed in collaboration with Officers from Cornwall Council (Emergency Management Service), Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service, Essex County Council, Shelter Box, Environment Agency, Highways Agency and members of The Scout Association.

The concept is to prepare young members of The Scout Association to have an understanding and awareness of what to do in the event of an emergency, consider the family unit in preparing for an emergency, and extending to those people within the community who may require assistance due to their vulnerability, ill health or circumstances, that by their nature has left someone within the community needing that little extra help.
