SCOUTING

Thursday, 4 June 2020

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton):

We know there are many benefits to Scouting; new empirical evidence through the recent Scouts Australia resilience survey proves it.

Some of the results include that scouts have a healthier mental state than non-scouts by 13 per cent, are almost 12 per cent more likely to feel good about themselves and are 15 per cent more likely to feel they are making a positive contribution to the community.

Go Scouting!
