  The Faith Award is about encouraging young people to develop an understanding of their own or another faith community. It is designed to bring a Group together to promote a greater understanding of the:
  • life
  • history, or
  • practices of a faith community in your local community area.
The aims of the Faith Award are to:
  • develop a greater understanding of a faith community
  • promote activities between the Sections
  • support the faiths and beliefs dimension in the Balanced Programme
  • ensure there is a positive influence on everyone taking part
  • have a long-term benefit in encouraging greater understanding or awareness of a local faith community.

Examples of projects might include:
  • developing links with a Scout Group of a faith community different to your own, e.g. Muslim or Sikh
  • working with an agency of your own faith community
