Founders day 2025

Date: 22nd Feb 2025 Author: Margaret Cowie

Today, 22 February, is a special day for Scouts everywhere. It’s a celebration of  shared values and common goals – working towards peace, unity and international friendship.

These sound like big ambitions, and they are. Especially in this day and age, when there’s so much going on in the world. But we can make them a reality by carrying out simple acts of kindness in our everyday lives. Every time we support people in our local communities, we’re living our promise to help other people.

Every one of us are proud to make our promise and build on the legacy of generations of the Scouts that came before us.

Happy Founder Day!
