Scouts want to improve the lives of refugees and displaced children. We’re helping make this possible.
We are so excited to be partnering with the Scouts through A Million Hands.
A Million Hands is the Scouts' community impact programme. It empowers young people in Scouts to make a difference in their communities.
Young people in Scouts chose to work with Save the Children on supporting refugees and displaced children.

Welcoming messages to refugees from Scouts
Over summer 2022, Scouts sent in hundreds of letters and drawings to welcome refugees and displaced children from all around the world into the UK.

GET INVOLVED
Whether you're a Squirrel or an Explorer, your group can support refugees and displaced children with our activities.
Through taking part in our activities, Scouts of all ages can learn how to:
- raise awareness of the issues that refugees and displaced children face
- combat stereotypes and think critically about stories in the media
- welcome refugees in their own communities
- build connections with Scouts living in conflict-affected areas
TRY OUT ONE OF OUR ACTIVITIES
Join comedian Dom Joly and members of our Youth Advisory Board to create a poster that makes refugees feel welcome in your community.
