⚠ Please note- policies are temporarily held on the temp link site whilst new systems, including the policy and support system are being put into place

Goal 

The ultimate aim is to maximise the number of people in Scouting and to be as large as possible, and use the data that is already in the district, through expressions of interest to access additional provision and funding to support growth, and growth in areas where scouting sees most long term societal impact, which is areas of deprivation. 

This will help us to help you manage the offering of places better to ensure you have full sections, and all the financial benefits that brings with it. We really appreciate you using the District Waiting List to fill your sections, hopefully these changes will make the lists easier to consume and manage.
