From climbing Mount Kenya to attending the World Scout Moot in Portugal, Alex's KSA journey took him across the globe.
Growing up in the 103rd, Alex found his favourite moment finishing his Gold DofE—exhausted, relieved, and absolutely buzzing.
Through Bronze, Silver and Gold DofE, Andrew's been soaked, roasting hot—and definitely not lost. Next stop: Windsor.
Highland dancing in New Hampshire, Explorer Belt in Norway—Cliona finished her KSA just a month before turning 25. It's never too late.
Edward's favourite part? Passing on his passion for Scouting to the younger sections. The paperwork was tough—but worth it.
From Roverway 2024 to running STEM workshops inspiring girls into science—Eilidh's KSA pushed her out of her comfort zone.
Blair Atholl twice, the Faroe Islands, sleeping rough for charity—Ewan loves that the KSA involves so much variety.
Camping across Scotland with friends was Lara's highlight. The KSA taught her the importance of not giving up.
Working with the UK Team and running international events—Scott's advice: just go for it, and choose challenges that push you.
The King's Scout Award is open to Explorer Scouts and Scout Network members. It's challenging, rewarding, and—as our awardees will tell you—absolutely worth it.
