Discover what this means

The Thanks Badge may be a suitable local thank you for a short-term valuable piece of work or a longer-term commitment.

The Thanks Badge can be awarded to non members who've been of service to Scouting.

They can be purchased via Scout Store and are usually presented by Groups/Districts, as a sign of gratitude and appreciation at a suitable ceremony.
