We will try and work through many of the Cub badges during our evening meetings, but there are some that are more easily achieved outside of the Scout Hut.

If you want to look at the requirements for any badge then you can do so online on the Scout Association website here: Cub Badge Requirements, or by purchasing a Cub Powerpack book from the Scout Shop.

You can also check your Cub Scouts badge progress using the My.Scout facility, if you have not been mailed your login to My.Scout then please let us know by e-mailing [email protected].

Below is a list of the badges (or parts of badges) we feel the Cubs can best achieve at home.
