Scouts Hereford & Worcester #KISC28

Great to see leaders from KISC24 involved once again as well as new volunteers too. Amazing to welcome back some who attended KISC24 as Explorer Scouts who are now supporting Scouting as adult volunteers. #ScoutsHW #InternationalScouting #volunteer

Great to have our first meet-up this evening to discuss #KISC28, lots of ideas as we begin to form a contingent management team for this adventure. Many thanks to @MazakEurope for the use of your amazing venue in Worcester for tonight’s meeting, your support is appreciated.

If you’re ready to help deliver an unforgettable Kandersteg experience for our young people, please put your name forward – and let’s start planning the adventure of a lifetime! Visit scoutshw.org.uk/join-the-adven… for all the info and tell us how you’d like to be involved 🇨🇭

The rumours are true, we’re going back to KISC! 2028 may feel a long way off but amazing trips need amazing planning by amazing leaders!

Many of you will remember Mark from #KISC24, check out his latest endeavour for Scouting!

Darren Edwards, a proud Scout when he was younger, is now one of the UK’s leading adventurers. After surviving a climbing accident when he was 26, which left him paralysed from the chest down, he’s gone on to achieve incredible things. Read his story 👇 bit.ly/40DqdKU

We have started the search for a contingent leader for 2028. This voluntary position requires strong organisational and communication skills, along with a collaborative approach, and will involve a significant time commitment before and during the event.

Can you believe it’s 100 days since this photo was taken on the final day of activities at #KISC24! We are very pleased to announce our ambition for #KISC28!

It is with sadness that we annouce the passing of the West Midlands Regional Commissioner, Dan Potter, after a short illness.

Peter is normally behind the camera but turn up the volume to hear this rare occasion that he’s captured on video himself 😂 #KISC24 #scoutshw #SkillsForLife #internationalscouting

One of the great things about Scouting is our amazing team of volunteers. When it comes to a major operation like striking camp everyone pulls together - the sub camp leaders, the finance lead, the catering lead, the activities lead and even the media lead!

Our #Scouts & former Scouts (Explorers) have had an amazing time in Switzerland. We’ve made new friends, had great adventures & been amazed by stunning landscapes. Thanks to all @ScoutshwKISC organisers for making this event happen #KISC24 @ScoutsRedditch

Welcome to England! We’re nearly home and can’t wait to see you all at Hopwood or Ledbury. #KISC24 #skillsforlife #ScoutsHW #InternationalScouting

We are heading home! Our young people (and adult volunteers) cannot wait to tell their families all about it! #KISC24 #skillsforlife #ScoutsHW #InternationalScouting

After a lovely afternoon yesterday visiting Interlaken by train (& having a meal out) we had another taste of adventure today - Simme river rafting. No action photos as we were too busy! #KISC24

Some of our Explorers from Wyre Forest arranged to meet up with their Swiss exchange student. His name is Bela and he stayed with Scouts from WF11 earlier this year, he is visiting the Brigerbad Water Park with us today. #KISC24 #skillsforlife #ScoutsHW #InternationalScouting

Did you know? Scouts get free bus transport in Kandersteg, they simply have to wear their neckerchief. #KISC24 #skillsforlife #ScoutsHW #InternationalScouting
