Forms & Admin
There is always something which needs notification, reporting or permission. We have created online versions of some of the most commonly needed forms and notifications. Your time in precious and we hope this makes your life a little simpler.
Reporting a Safeguarding Concern
The welfare of children and young people is our priority and everyone has a duty to report safeguarding concerns directly to the UK HQ Safeguarding Team, in line with the Safeguarding Code of Conduct for Adults (Yellow Card).
Nights Away Notification (form NAN)
The District Lead Volunteer needs to be informed about any section or unit attending a nights away event (even a sleepover in your normal meeting place).
Complete the online NAN form on My Membership to make this as simple as possible.
