The motion
That the Parliament congratulates the Scouts who awoke on 1 May 2020 as record breakers following their participation in the world’s largest virtual camp, #CampAtHome; notes that in excess of 84,000 UK Scouts and their families took part in the event, along with participants from a further 67 countries; understands that the young people were set challenges such as building dens and real and virtual campfires and helping with cooking a meal, with a large number also taking part in the "neckie flip challenge"; recognises the many benefits of scouting, which include helping to build confidence and self-esteem, learning important skills for life and leadership skills as well as team building, outdoor adventure, having fun and forming friendships, and commends everyone who helped to make the challenge such a success.
