PURPOSE AND USE: This form provides the information a relevant District/County Lead Volunteer (or their nominee) requires to APPROVE an event to take place (i.e. POR 9.1b/9.1c). The Permit holder is responsible for ensuring the appropriate District/County Lead Volunteer is informed about each section attending a nights away event (even a District or County event). For all Nights Away events the information below should be with your relevant District/County Lead Volunteer (or their nominee) at least 7 days before the event (in normal circumstances). How the information is passed on will depend on local arrangements, but must be documented. Please ensure your Group Lead Volunteer / District Explorer Scout Lead is aware of the event.
The event must not go ahead until the relevant District/County Lead Volunteer (or their nominee) has confirmed their approval.

Scouts are do-ers and give-it-a-go-ers, and it's for everyone. We go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling and canoeing. We make friends, have fun, play games, and work in teams.
HM King Charles III has been confirmed as our new Patron, a great honour for UK Scouts.
The King continues a long tradition of the monarch giving their Patronage, dating back to 1912. This was when Scouts was granted its Royal Charter and HM George V became our first Patron.
