District “Chair’s Award”
There is two aspects to this competition, the first is the Design a Badge and the other is the nomination for the District “Chairs Award”
Badge Competition
Firstly, this new scheme will need a badge that the young person receiving the reward will be able to wear throughout their time in Scouts. So, I am starting a design competition! The design should be in a rectangle shape as shown in the first attachment. Send your designs through to awards@brscouts.org.uk. The closing date for this is XXXXXXXXXX.
The Award Scheme
The four criteria for this award are based on the Scouting values and Law:
- Integrity – Showing excellent honesty, morality or loyalty to their fellow Scouts, group or section
- Respect – Showing appreciation to others before themselves.
- Care – Supporting someone else less able than themselves or helping someone in their moment of need.
- Courage – Overcoming an obstacle.
Additionally, there is a temporary criteria for outstanding work during the COVID-19 crisis.
These awards will be open to any young person in the Bury & Ramsbottom District. A leader, parent or Scout can nominate a fellow Scout. Their name will go forward to a panel and I will personally give them out.
You can nominate a young person below or alternatively click here to download a paper form which can be sent to awards@brscouts.org.uk.
