Fellowship for Lesbians and Gays in Scouting (FLAGS)

Their remit is to provide active support to all members, and people associated with Scouting with regards to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender issues and to spread the message that its ok to be Gay and be in Scouts.

With that message we hope to recruit new adults into the movement, and also to develop members already in the movement helping them to achieve their full potential.

We are planning to attend Gay Pride events to do this, the 1st one was London Pride on the Saturday 4th July.

FLAGS attended London Pride on Saturday 4th July. Media coverage has been good, lots of people on the BBC news with the Scout Stickers and coverage of us on Sky News

Anyone is welcome to join the fellowship, we have a website www.flagscouts.org.uk and you can also email membership@flagscouts.org.uk.
