Following the success of Alps22, the ‘Jamboree in the mountains’ returns to Saint Crepin, France, in 2025 (11–22 August 2025 – final dates to be confirmed).
Registration has now closed for this event, and we are excited to begin to bring on board the Delivery Team members: leaders and activity instructors from across the county plus members of the Network Service Team. We are in the process of building a fantastic programme of adventure and culture, and will have more information for Explorer Scouts very soon.
