Scouting is a worldwide Movement in 161 countries, with distinct age levels and programs that has shaped the development of youth and adults for over 100 years. Scouts are in every part of our community, and Scouts is the biggest
and pre-eminent youth organisation in Australia. More than 20,000 boys, girls, and adults in Victoria from wide cultural or religious backgrounds including those with an
intellectual or physical disability enjoy an unlimited range of activities in
the bush, the sea, the rivers, the towns & cities and the mountains. The aim of Scouting is to encourage the social, physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual development of young people so they may play a constructive role in society as responsible citizens and as members of their local and international communities. This aim is achieved through a strong and active program that inspires young people to do their best and to always be prepared. In Victoria we have over 20,000 youth members across the state.
