Squirrels Joining In Award

Squirrels Joining In Award

Joining In badge

Joining In Awards celebrate every year you spend with us. You can collect up to two during your time in Squirrels.

How to earn your badge:

  1. You can get these badges for taking an active part in your programme.
  2. The badges are numbered and you can be awarded a new badge every 12 months, from the time you joined Scouting.
  3. These badges are not just for Squirrels, so you will be able to collect them as you go through Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers. They recognise how long you have been part of the Scout movement.
  4. You can get up to two of these badges while you’re in the Squirrels Drey.

May 2024.

Requirements can be adapted to suit each young persons abilities. See our guidance on flexibility.
