Being an Explorer
When you join Explorers, you’ll be introduced to lots of new activities, people and things.
Top Awards
Our Top Awards are designed to be challenging, relevant and rewarding, but, most of all, they should allow young people to have fun.
Activity & Stage badges
Master something you love, or try something shiny and new. If it spurs you on or stirs your interest, we’ve probably got a badge for it.
Challenge Awards
Challenge Awards are all about going further. Explorers will choose something they care about, plan what they want to achieve, and follow it through over time.
Explorer Scouts Young Leaders Award
ESYLs are Explorer Scouts who volunteer alongside our adult volunteers in a Squirrel Drey, Beaver Colony, Cub Pack or Scout Troop.
