Local Scout Networks comprise a number of Members of the Scout Network, meeting together and organising a series of activities for Scout Network Members.

All Local Scout Networks are part of the County Provision.

The opening and closing of local Scout Networks is the responsibility of the County Commissioner in consultation with the County Scout Network Commissioner, County Executive Committee and District Commissioners.

Local Scout Networks may be linked to a Scout District, Group, Activity Centre or other provision of Scouting, but are not a formal part of that District, Group, Activity Centre or provision. A formal agreement between the two is not required, however, discussions between them are encouraged.

All Local Scout Networks are required to be open to male and female membership except in special situations. Special situations include those where there are specific cultural or religious requirements for single sex Local Scout Networks.

Each Local Scout Network is required to nominate a Co-ordinator from their membership whose role is to liaise with the County Scout Network Commissioner.
