Religious Policy

The Scout Movement includes members of many different faiths and religions, as well as those with no formal religion.  The following policy has received the approval of the heads of the leading religious bodies in the United Kingdom.  All members of the Movement are encouraged to:

  • Make every effort to progress in the understanding and observance of the Promise to do their best to do their duty to God or to uphold Scouting's values as appropriate
  • Explore their faith, beliefs and attitudes
  • Consider belonging to some faith or religious body
  • Carry into daily practice what they profess

The five principles of spiritual reflection are:

  • To develop an inner discipline and training
  • To be involved in corporate activities
  • To understand the natural world around them
  • To help create a more tolerant and caring society
  • To discover the need for spiritual reflection
