The King’s Scout Award is the culmination of everything that Explorer Scouts and Scout Network members have achieved in Scouting.
The King’s Scout Award must be completed before a Network Member reaches their 25th birthday. Take a look here for more information and resources including the Reach the Top guide which can be found here. Upon completing the King’s Scout Award, which is the highest award for youth members in the UK, award holders will be invited to Windsor Castle to celebrate their achievement.
The King’s Scout Award is designed to be challenging but entirely flexible to suit the needs of the young person engaged in it. To complete it, participants must undertake six items from the International, Community and Values (ICV) list.
