​The Personal Challenge - for all sections 

Picture
Picture
Members of all Sections: Beavers, Cubs and Scouts all need to complete their Personal Challenge as part of the Chief Scout's Award.  This is in 2 parts, one that they choose for themselves and one that we set.

Click on each badge for a completion sheet. There is a booklet here if you would like to use it, it gives space for more writing, or drawings.
The challenge that we are setting to all our members at this time is to continue  their Scouting activities - and to complete either some of the badgework options here on this page, or others of their own choosing.
You can email to say what challenge you have chosen, or use the Parent Portal.
