As some of you know, our troop decided not to be involved with achievement
badges, so when one of my very bright and active scouts became part of the
Jamboree contingent I felt sorry for him to have such bare sleeves and asked
him to make list of any badges he thought he could have earned and I would
give them to him to sew-on. ( becuase I can) His reply was suprisingly
supportive and mature, he said, "People have asked why I havn't any badges
and I told them that our troop is different" He said he was grateful for me
asking, but was happy with how we did things.

We recently had a Scout join us from elsewhere in the country and he had a
polo shirt with all the badges on it. Obviously with short sleeves he
couldn't get many achievement badges on :-) However he did have membership
badge, moving up, unit, district and county badges. Apparently that was
standard uniform at his old troop.

Surely the BSL, CSL or SL run* their respective Sections under the GSL
who has different responsibilities just the same as the ESL "runs" the
Unit under the DESC (if there is one). You seem to be saying I am in
charge or I am taking my ball away.
*Runs of course has different connotations as the YP get older and take
a more active part in the decision making process.

Many thanks to the person who suggested decorating candles with wax
crayons - I did this with the cubs last night & they loved it.
They also enjoyed decorating (plastic!) wine glasses using egg white (as
glue) & caster sugar.

Yes.
However that isn't actually relevant here, because the company is a
registered data controller, and is allowed to process data in accordance
with its registration.
The overwhelming majority of Scout Groups are unregistered data controllers,
and are restricted to processing data in certain ways.

I am A scout Leader in Northern Ireland and wanted to find out from any
leaders in England / Scotland or Wales when their school exams usually
are. ? This is with respect to the centenary camps which are set for
May 25/27 next year.
For my Scouts that looks like the weekend before their secondary school
exams and for our Explorers it wil be slap bang in the middle of
GSCE/AS and A levels.
End result wil probably be I am not sure if I will have any going to
our count camp.
I was just wondering when the English/Scottish/Welsh school exams
usually are. I know that the English schools run much later in the year
finishing in July I think (?)

I agree that whilst it is an option most do not buy them. Instead Group polo
shirts, rugby shirts and sweatshirts seem to be popular.

I think my sister has on hers. That said though she doesn't possess a proper
uniform shirt and wears the polo as one.

The only problem with whatever you wear it is neve enough. In summer a polo
shirt is fine, in winter you need something with long sleeves (I don't but
many do) so that brings is back to havig 2 or more items. Add a fleece .....
