Inclusion toolkits for volunteers

Scouts is for everyone, and we want to reflect the communities we serve. We know that when everyone feels welcome, everyone benefits. 

We’ve created these toolkits to help you reflect on inclusion in your Section, Group, District or County/Area/Region. They’re designed to support you as a volunteer, whether you’re just getting started or building on the great things already happening. 

You’ll find tips and ideas to help make Scouts a place where all young people and volunteers feel respected, included and able to thrive. 

Use these toolkits to: 

• Celebrate what’s already going well. 
• Reflect as a team and identify areas for growth. 
• Plan simple actions to become even more inclusive. 

When using these toolkits, we encourage you to follow our Scout Values by: 

• Collaborating as a team. 
• Creating a supportive space where everyone’s voice is heard. 
• Being open, honest and ready to grow. 
• Exploring new ideas to become even more inclusive. 
• Keeping Scouts fun and welcoming for everyone.
