Planning Visits Abroad in 2027

We’re excited to bring together our most experienced and enthusiastic leaders to map out Cheshire Scouts’ overseas programme for 2027. Together, we want every Explorer Scout to have the chance to explore the world outside our borders to build friendships, skills, and confidence along the way.

Who’s Invited

• Leaders already planning visits abroad in 2026 or 2027
• Applicants for the 2027 World Scout Jamboree unit leadership team
• Leaders who ran an overseas trip in 2025
• Anyone who’s expressed interest in running a visit abroad
• District representatives

If you fall into one (or more!) of these groups, you’re exactly who we need in the room.
