Our Policy on Photographs

FROM THE SCOUTING ASSOCIATION

"Promoting scouting through the use of appropriate and positive images is important. Scouting needs publicity and a picture is worth a thousand words".

​

...there have been concerns about the risks to young people when their photographs are used on websites and in publications, however, in most cases, following a few simple guidelines will make the taking and use of photographs a straightforward matter...

We follow strict guidelines on the use of images:

• Avoid using the full name

• Seek parental permission

• Only allow photographs of suitably dressed subjects and in appropriate situations

• Follow 'Young People First' (the yellow card) at all times.
