Badges and Neck Scarves
These are provided by the Group when a member joins, but we have to charge for replacements. Blanket badges and non-scout badges are not permitted on the uniform of any member of the Scout Movement. Badges should be sewn on neatly and securely to minimise the chance of them snagging on anything and ripping a shirt or pulling a thread on a jersey. Before sewing on any badges, please ensure that they are in the exact position:
Buying a Uniform
These can be bought from branches and agents of Scout Shops Ltd - the nearest agent is Whittakers in London St - or from www.scoutshops.com/.
