Activity packs

Some activity badges are sponsored by outside companies, and these companies often provide extra exciting resource packs to help Beavers towards gaining their badges.

Recognising achievement

You can also keep your young people motivated and recognise achievement with your own awards.

Staged Activity Badges

The staged activity badges have been designed to provide a unified approach throughout the sections. 

There are fourteen activity badges staged across the sections.

This means that a young person can gain whichever badge is appropriate to the level they have reached. It is possible, for example, for a Beaver Scout who is an excellent swimmer to gain a higher level badge than a Scout who has just taken up the activity.

A young person should always wear only the highest of each staged badge type that they have gained on the uniform.
