NYERI VISITOR CENTRE

An opportunity to support Kenya Scouts as they prepare for the Centenary of Scouting. They are converting land in the town of Nyeri into a visitor centre for the use of local Scouts and the community as a training centre, while also providing a place for Scouts to stay when visiting the nearby graves of Lord & Lady Baden-Powell.

LEPROSY SCREENING IN INDIA

The Bharat Scouts & Guides provide a service to their communities. Following an education programme, they go into the local area to check for signs of leprosy. This takes great courage, as there are still many misunderstandings about the spread of leprosy.

STREET SCOUTS OF UGANDA

The Uganda Scout Association is working to help take children off the streets of Kampala. Many of these children are the victims of exploitation - in prostitution, dependent on drugs and solvents, scavenging for their own survival. The Uganda Scouts are hoping to create a home for their Street Scouts and to provide them with the skills they will need for their future lives.

AIDS AWARENESS IN MALAYSIA

Scouts in Malaysia are trained to deliver the important messages about personal health, and especially sexual health: The Scouts use plays, writing competitions and direct interaction with young people to spread the important messages in the community.
