Scouting has a reputation as an outdoor organisation based on strong traditions of camping and other outdoor persuits. Members of the Network have the opportunity to camp and go away on expeditions that will challenge and test them. These are an essential theme of Scouting and a good opportunity for them to organise activities and stretch their limits.

Members of the Scout Network can also undertake another role within Scouting e.g. a Leader with another Section, a helper of Skills Instructor, a member of the Scout active support, a member in another capacity.

Scout Network meet together at their Headquarters ‘The Shop’, at Les Maingy Scout and Guide Headquarters.

Members of Network wear a khaki colour shirt. They also wear a neckerchief (scarf) and a leather woggle (which keeps their scarf together).

By making the promise, an important act in Scouting and common to every section, a young person becomes a Member of the worldwide Movement.
