Awards Ceremony

We held our annual Adult Awards Evening at Burghley House, celebrating the achievements and dedication of volunteers across Lincolnshire over the past year.

During the evening, we recognised a range of prestigious awards, including the King’s Scout Award, Explorer Belt, Silver Acorn, and the Silver Wolf. These awards are among the highest honours in Scouting and recognise outstanding service, commitment, and the positive impact volunteers make for young people.


A big congratulations to everyone who achieved an award this year.


Thank you for your hard work and dedication to supporting and inspiring young people across Lincolnshire Scouts.
