Scouting is an international movement and a visit abroad is a fantastic opportunity.

Learn about another culture, meet other Scouts, understand how they live, experience unique adventures and extend the horizons of our members beyond the village, town or city in which they live. Find out about the upcoming international opportunities, got any questions email international@blackpoolscouts.org.uk.
