We're over the moon that Scouts has won Volunteer Team of the Year for our work supporting the public at the Lying in State of HM Queen Elizabeth II. We couldn't be prouder of the hundreds of volunteers who gave such selfless service to the nation.
Congratulations to @scouts the WINNERS in the Volunteer Team of the Year category at the 2023 #ThirdSectorAwards!

The last of the @UKContingent Core Team 9am briefings.
We have been through a lot in this journey, but together we have overcome the challenges to ensure young people and adults had a unique international adventure.

On your @2023wsjkorea trip to Seoul you might be wondering about the tipping culture.
It’s important to know that tipping is considered rude. As an alternative, try learning the Korean for thank you instead!

Fantastic and energising weekend with the awesome team that makes up @UKContingent at Gilwell Park this weekend. Last stop before we head to @2023wsjkorea in July.
Taking 5000 Scouts from the UK to Korea is no mean feat 😅
✨This weekend the adult volunteers making this happen got together to put finishing touches to their preparations for @2023wsjkorea

For anyone looking for an antidote to work and a new challenge then I highly recommend #volunteering with @scouts and this article is well worth a read to give a sense how rewarding it is

We’re so proud that our Scout volunteers were in London to support the public for the #Coronation of HM The King today.
Great to celebrate the @RoyalFamily #Coronation with @worldscouting from across the @commonwealthsec ahead of helping to support the @scouts & @DCMS volunteer operation tomorrow
