Our rule book
The Scout associations rule book is called Policy, Organisation and Rules. The new ‘easy to read’ version is linked below.
Our membership System
Compass is a free, secure tool from The Scout Association to help you keep track of your adult Members in the Scouts.
Researched, developed and tested with Members in a range of Scout roles, Compass can perform a range of functions to make many aspects of Scout admin quicker and easier to manage in one place. The system safely stores data about adult members and allows you to perform useful tasks with that information.
There is a video giving an overview of Compass.
The support site at www.scouts.org.uk/compass has been set up to help you use Compass. It provides a range of guides and resources, all of which aim to answer any questions you may have, helping you to complete processes you need to carry out as part of your role. Use the menu along the top of the page on the support site to navigate and explore the help available.
