Rover Awards
As well as being great fun and a real adventure Rovers provides a great opportunity for young people to develop. This is achieved through the activities we do and the many leadership opportunities that present themselves.
There are many people that provide a great service to Rovers, we should recognise them as well.

Baden-Powell Scout Award (BPSA)
The Baden-Powell Scout Award (BPSA) is the major formal award that can be achieved by Rovers and is the focus of the Award Scheme in the Rover Section. Its aim is to encourage Rovers to seek ways to widen their interests and extend their knowledge and experience beyond their current capabilities.
Participation in the Award Scheme is entirely an individual’s choice, though the benefits it provides through setting and achieving personal goals and in the esteem that comes with completing the award is a great incentive for all Rovers to undertake this.
