Cub Challenge Badge Awards:

The Challenges complement the balanced programme. These have been developed to extend Cub Scouts' skills and experience. The Challenges are optional and continue throughout the Sections providing continuity from 6 to 25.

Staged Activity Badges:

These are progressive awards that are in several parts. They can be earned in Beavers, Cubs, Scouts or Explorers. Once they are earned in one section they can be worn when you move onto the next session e.g. if earned as a Cub you can wear on your Scout uniform.
