County Scout Youth Spokespersons

Young People are Scouting. Only they can convey the fun, challenge and adventure that Scouting offers as they
are experiencing it first hand. In recent years, Scouting has encouraged young people to speak about their
experiences to print, broadcast and online journalists.

Nationally co-ordinated courses are regularly run across the UK. These courses are designed to give young
people the skills needed for them to talk about their experiences in Scouting. These activities include camps, expeditions, hikes, overseas trips, community service or involving teamwork or leadership. These courses help young people to speak positively and eloquently about their experience.
