Local Opportunities and Support

If you want some support with your award and badges then your Explorer Scout Leader is the best person to speak to first. There are also these great opportunities below which can help you achieve some of the award and badges available.

Duke of Edinburgh's Award

You can access the D of E application form here. It is a joint form between Network and Explorers, and is found on the Network website.

Explorer Belt

In 2012 West Lancs Scouts is running a County supported Explorer Belt expedition to Bulgaria and Romania. This means that you join up with loads of other teams doing their Explorer Belt at the same time in the same place. There are leaders nearby in case you need them, but other than that you get on with your Explorer Belt the same as any other time. This way you get to make loads of new friends and they can even help you find a team to do it with. You can find out more about this trip on the County Supported Explorer Belt page.

To find out more about the Explorer Belt award visit the Explorer Belt page of the National Explorer Scout website.
