As volunteers there are a number of websites, tools and systems you may use, we’ve collected some links below to help with quick navigation:
Tools for Leaders
National Tools
- Compass – This system has now been replaced with the new Digital Tools available from scouts.org.uk (see below for more details and links).
- National Digital Tools / The Scouts Homepage- The membership database, learning portal and vacancies management are now all accessed directly from the https://scouts.org.uk homepage (after you have signed in). If you aren’t already logged in there, visit: https://www.scouts.org.uk/auth/b2c-login to be logged in and redirected to the main page which will then show the tool selector. If you are already logged in you’ll receive an error using the login link, so instead go straight to https://scouts.org.uk.
