Event Support

Our Event Support team maintains a vast selection of equipment, including marquees, communication, safety equipment, signage, catering, plumbing and electricity and trailers. Its team members are skilled with setting up provision for major events, to turn a plain field into a fully-functioning camp with toilets, electricity points, catering units, gas supply, telecommunications systems, and audio-visual stage set ups. The team kit is stored in a secure location in Thirsk. The team supports North Yorkshire events, and also sell their services to other Scout Counties and Districts, as well as private events such as The OMM.

HM King Charles III has been confirmed as our new Patron, a great honour for UK Scouts.

The King continues a long tradition of the monarch giving their Patronage, dating back to 1912. This was when Scouts was granted its Royal Charter and HM George V became our first Patron.
