Badges on the Uniform

There are several handy pictures of where to sew the badges on the uniforms held on the UK Scout website.

• Badges on the Beaver Uniform
• Badges on the Cub Uniform
• Badges on the Scout Uniform

Group badge

Bishops Waltham Scout Group have our own Group badge which is based on the old Bishops Waltham District badge from before the Scout District was re-organised. The badge will be provided to members when they are invested and should be sewn onto the necker.

Moving badges between uniforms

In general badges should not be moved when a member moves from Beavers to Cubs, or Cubs to Scouts. However there are some badges which can be moved:

• Any of the staged activity badges. Only the highest number of each of these badges should be moved. The staged activity badges are:
  • Emergency Aid
  • Hikes Away
  • Information Technology
  • Musician
  • Nights Away
  • Swimmer
• The Chief Scout Award appropriate to the section:
  • The Bronze Chief Scout Award if moving from Beavers to Cubs
  • The Silver Chief Scout Award if moving from Cubs to Scouts
• The Joining-in badge 
  • Take the one with the highest number (so you only need to move one badge).
