Challenge awards

Gaining a challenge badge involves accomplishing a number of more ambitious tasks within the pack or community. There are several challenge badges across a number of themes, from the physical and outdoorsy to challenges dealing with the local community or issues connected with the Scouting world. See the Challenge Awards.

Activity badges

Many of the badges available are activity badges. These badges which allow Beaver Scouts to show their progress in existing pursuits, but also to try all kinds of new things and form new interests. See the Activity Badges.

Staged Activity badges

These are similar to the Activity Badges above with different levels of achievement. They can be carried through from Beavers to Explorers. See the Staged Activity Badges.
