To gain this Award, the Sea Scout must complete the Outdoor Challenge, plus at least four of the remaining Challenges, plus a personal challenge.The Personal challenge
You must discuss and agree with the Scout the level of personal commitment needed. Bear in mind that the activity needs to be challenging to each individual. It is expected that Sea Scouts would normally start the personal challenge six months before they are due to transfer to Sea Explorer Scouts.
The Sea Scout must complete the following three areas:
Area One - Adventure
Take part in a completely new activity or achieve a higher standard in an existing activity.
Area Two - Leadership
Attend at least two Troop Leadership Forum meetings and successfully achieve an action point from one of these meetings.
Area Three - Commitment
Complete an activity that demonstrates personal commitment. This could be:
Community activities: for example, a weekend conservation project, an activity for younger people.
Sea Scouting activities: for example, website design and maintenance, helping with younger Sections.
Hobbies and interests: for example, extra responsibilities in a choir or sports club. Back to top
