The Northern Europe District comprises of 10 Scout Groups with a total membership of approximately 700 young people and 300 adults. (2022 Census). The groups in the District include:

  • 1st Amsterdam - Netherlands
  • 1st Brussels - Belgium

We are looking forward to the challenges that 2023 bring in growing the District and the opportunities to deliver first-class scouting to all our young people. Whilst most of the Groups are separated by some considerable distance, they have been increasingly working together over the last few years with district camps and other events. The District is at an exciting stage of its development and there is the opportunity to build on strong foundations laid by the outgoing District Commissioner.

Attending an international Scout Jamboree is a transformative experience that combines adventure, learning, and cultural exchange, helping Scouts develop into well-rounded individuals with a strong sense of belonging and the ability to work in teams. Since 2017, we have attended many international summer jamborees which have all been chosen by our members
