UKWP 2026

Stuck for an idea on where to complete your Gold DofE residential? Wanting something different for your International section of your King’s Scout ICV?

We may have the event for you! 

UK Working Party offers the opportunity to have a unique international experience at an iconic Scouting location in Switzerland.

It is an exclusively adult event run at Kandersteg International Scout Centre in Switzerland.

Who can take part?

Network Scouts who need to be 18 years old on or before 25 April 2026.

When is the event running?

UKWP runs from 25 April – 3 May 2026, during which time, you will have your accommodation and meals covered by KISC in return for providing service and completing projects at the centre in preparation of their very busy summer season.  All this, while working in international teams alongside the Pinkies.

What will you explore?

During your free time you can explore the local area, with your new friends taking in the local beauty spots or travel further afield to visit a nearby town. As this is a small event, outside of working hours, the activities undertaken are chosen by the group.

What will it cost?

Participants need to cover the cost of their flights, train fare and an event fee (which includes travel insurance and event clothing).

How do I apply and find out more?

If you would like to apply for the chance to participate in UKWP, please complete the application form by 1 February 2026!
