Uniform

Scouting is a uniformed organisation, and as such, Scouts are expected to arrive and leave in full uniform each week.

Full uniform consists of:

  • a teal green Scout shirt or blouse
  • a navy blue Scout activity trousers or skirt
  • a Scout belt and buckle
  • the 17th St Albans (Abbey) scarf
  • a Scout woggle

When you become a full member of the Scouts and are invested, you will be presented with the scarf and woggle. Scarves from Cubs and Beavers will be re-presented at the investiture ceremony.

All these items must be official uniform – the trousers, belt buckle, shirt and woggle all have the ‘Scouts’ logo on them.

Uniforms are available from:
