Adventurous Activities Training & Permit Advice

The Adventurous Activity Permit Scheme is designed to show that all those leading adventurous activities for young people within Scouting have the skills, experience and personal qualities to do so.

Everyone who leads an adventurous activity for young people within Scouting is required to hold an activity permit for that activity. (Different rules apply when using external providers)

Details of which activities are classed as adventurous can be found in P.O.R. Chapter 9

Although managed locally, the Adventurous Activity Permit Scheme is national, so once gained a permit will allow you to run an activity in any District or County during it's period of validity.

For advice about Adventurous Activity training and applying for permits please contact the Assistant County Commissioner (Activities)
