National – Millions of Scouts Globally Honour Movement’s Legacy on Founder’s Day

Millions of scouts across the globe celebrated World Scout Day today, a significant annual event dedicated to the movement’s foundational principles and its founder.

The occasion commemorates the joint birth anniversary of Lord Robert Baden-Powell, the originator of the Scout movement, and his spouse, Olave Baden-Powell, who held the title of World Chief Guide.

The day serves as a moment for participants to pay tribute to the organisation’s heritage, champion community involvement, and deliberate on the core values central to Scouting.
