Wearing uniform helps young people feel part of the group and take pride in their achievements. Each section has its own coloured sweatshirt or top, worn with the 1st Shifnal necker.
Uniform can be purchased from:
Official Scout Store (online)
Glasgow Scout Shop (online)
1st Shifnal Branded Clothing (online) - 1st Shifnal branded purple hoodies, t-shirts & polos
Second‑hand uniform (when available) - keep an eye on our WhatsApp groups
Each section has its own badge layout. You’ll find diagrams showing exactly where badges go on the Uniform & Badges page for your child’s section.
Young people receive their necker when they are invested into the group.
We’ll show them how to roll it neatly - and you can find a step‑by‑step guide in the Skills section.
Sew badges on securely (or use badge glue if preferred)
Label uniform clearly
Bring uniform to every session unless told otherwise
