We’re excited to invite you to a very special day celebrating Scouts from across Cornwall.

For the first time, we’re bringing together all sections – from Squirrels to Network – for a county-wide event that shines a spotlight on the amazing achievements of our young people.

This event is all about recognising the incredible things young people in Scouts achieve every day.
Families are warmly invited to join us for:
