The Explorer Scout Young Leaders’ Scheme

Young Leaders must continue to follow all safeguarding rules and the Orange Card; they should be aware of our safeguarding guidance on how to stay safe online. Young Leaders should never be in a one-to-one conversation with another young person, even when they’re interacting with young people online.

All Young Leader modules (including Module A: prepare for take-off) can now be delivered online.

Where a young person turns 18 during this period, they must follow the rules and requirements relevant to their adult membership as a volunteer or Scout Network member.

Any equivalent adult training someone completes can be counted towards the relevant Young Leader modules.
