Explorer Scout opportunities - British Youth Council delegate vacancies and financial education resources survey To: All UK Explorer Scout section Dear Explorer Scout Leaders We currently have two opportunities for Explorer Scouts and need your help to make sure that all Explorers hear about them. I'd be really grateful if you could pass these on to your Unit members. Headquarters have six vacancies on The Scout Association's British Youth Council Scout Delegation. The British Youth Council (BYC) is a youth-led charity that empowers young people and campaigns with them and on their behalf. The Scout Association is a member of BYC and as such we have ten delegates who attend the BYC Annual Council meeting to help set their policy and campaigns as well as participating in other meetings, events and campaigns throughout the year. It's a really good opportunity for any Explorer Scouts interested in citizenship, politics and campaigning. They only have six places left, so I wanted to make sure your don't miss out. More information on how to apply can be found here. The deadline for applications is 16 December. Recently we visited the flowrider at Heworth. The activity was officially rated as 'Epic' by the Scouts who attended. The rest of the troop, who were doing archery can't wait to give it a go.
