Young Spokespeople (YSP): Speaking up and Standing up for Scouting!
Do you know an Explorer Scout who is keen to promote the Movement and learn more about the media? The Scouts Speak Up course trains 14-18 year olds to be confident Young Spokespeople. They will find out how to talk positively to journalists and get their message across in front of the camera.
By speaking coherently and eloquently, Explorer Scouts encourage other young people to join, more adults to volunteer, and communities and benefactors to support the skills for life that Scouting undertakes. Why? Young people are Scouting; only they can convey the fun, challenge and life-changing adventure that Scouting offers, as they’re experiencing it first-hand.
Scouts Speak Up (SSU):
- Engage in and practice print, radio and TV interviews;
- Learn about advocacy – how to plan and carry out campaigns;
- Develop in communication, presentation skills and self-confidence.
