Don’t forget that your compass record needs to be kept up to date and should include details of any additional needs and/or disabilities that you have - click on the link above to go to Compass. It is really important that these are recorded so that we can provide the right support to you if needed. Sometimes leaders are worried that if they put down an additional need and/or disability they will be prevented from remaining in their Scouting role. This is not the case at all – we use this information to tailor support to you should you need it.
Have you thought about assessing how inclusive your section is (this is also available for groups and districts)? The Inclusivity RAG (Red, Amber, Green) Assessment is a tool to help you assess the types of young people joining and taking part in your section, and consider how the section operates. It can be found here sectionsinclusivityrag.pdf (scouts.org.uk)
