When a young person is first invested into our Group they will receive the 24th Macclesfield Necker, Necker badge, Group Name Tag, District/County badge and the World Membership badge.
These badges move with the young person each time they move into a new section.
The highest awarded of each of the staged activity badges are worn on the left sleeve of the uniform. These are also moved onto new uniform each time a young person moves to a new section.
A Chief Scouts Award achieved in a previous section may also be worn on the older section uniform.
For more details on specific badge placement please see the guides below:
All Beavers, Cubs and Scouts wear a 24th Macclesfield Methodist Scouts badge on their necker. The badge should be placed on the point of the necker, where the two coloured halves meet.
