Promotional Resources

Running regular awareness and promotion activities in your area can grow your Group or help you open new Sections.

This page is focussed on youth member promotions – please see Leader Build for information on the leader recruitment program.

This Promotional Resources page has a range of tips, ideas and templates that you can customise for local promotions. There are also links to posters and flyers that you can simply download and print. This page will be added to as more resources are developed.

Note: Some templates will be downloaded as word documents and will have sections highlighted in yellow to be customised. Simply edit these documents to reflect your groups name and whatever else you need added e.g. date of an open night, leaders name etc.

Ready-to-go Campaigns

Scouts NSW has existing campaigns ready to be activated by your Group! Plan ahead and order items delivered to you for no cost, or download our digital resources to print and distribute in your community.


Social Media Toolkit

Social media is an easy to use and free way to connect online with current and future Scouts and their families.


Engaging with local schools and your community

Engaging with community is at the heart of what we do. Whether helping out, showcasing Scouts activities, recruiting for new members and Leaders, or sharing stories of your incredible achievements at your Group, you can find what you need to make your next engagement activity a success in the resources available below.


Promotional Collateral

As Scouts NSW is a charity, some TV/Radio/Press will run free Community Service Announcements for Scouts. Groups can approach their local media and ask if they do this. Then email [email protected] for a link to the ads.
