Happy Founder’s Day – 22nd Feb

Today, we celebrate the birthday and legacy of the founder of Scouting, Lord Baden-Powell and the incredible impact the Scouting movement has had on millions of lives worldwide.

BP was born in England on 22nd February 1857.

A movement founded on service, adventure, friendship and inclusion and a deep belief in the potential of young people.

Founder’s Day is also a time to renew our commitment to the Scout Promise and Law - to be people of character, courage, compassion and hope.
