What We Do
Scouting provides young people with opportunities to participate in programmes, events, activities and projects that contribute to their growth as active citizens. Through these initiatives, young people become agents of positive change who inspire others to take action.
At Barlaston & Tittensor scout group we do this during weekly meetings, during local school term times for
Beavers (age 6-8) on Wednesdays 18:00-19:00,
Cubs (age 8 – 10 1/2) on Tuesdays 18:30-20:00 and
Scouts (age 10 1/2 – 14) on Thursdays 19:00-21:00
Mission
“The Mission of Scouting is to contribute to the education of young people, through a value system based on the Scout Promise and Law, to help build a better world where people are self-fulfilled as individuals and play a constructive role in society.”
The Mission was adopted at the 35th World Scout Conference in Durban, South Africa in 1999. Illustrating both the local and global impact of Scouting, the Mission of Scouting has been captured in World Scouting’s brand as “Creating a Better World”.
Vision
“By 2023 Scouting will be the world’s leading educational youth movement, enabling 100 million young people to be active citizens creating positive change in their communities and in the world based on shared values.”
The Vision for Scouting, Vision 2023, was adopted at the 40th World Scout Conference in Ljubljana, Slovenia in 2014.
At B&T we follow the World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) mission and vision
