| Purpose of this website |
On April 26th 2022 an email was received explaining that Scouts.ie had launched a redesigned version of their website www.scouts.ie. Click here to read the full text of the email Apparently the aim was to produce a website that is easier to use, up to date and compatible with the new member management system. The communication went on to explain that the website had been redesigned to serve public, parents, potential new members, and funders and that therefore it no longer contains resources, policies and other documents which are for members only. We were told that:
- The documents have been moved to issuu.com for the time being, while we waited for the launch of the new membership management system.
- You should be able to find everything you need in Issuu.
- Please look at the stacks tab to find folders which may be helpful.
issuu.com is not easy to navigate and locating specific documents is a matter of scrolling through lists of thumbnails. This website was setup to try to bridge the gap and to make the resources a little more accessible for those who wish to refer to them. To access resources click on “All Resources” on the header menu or click HERE
The site administrator in not in a position to make any assurances about whether these materials are appropriate or fit for purpose, and wishes to advise the reader that some appear to be out-of-date but still in use, some refer to roles and structures which no longer seem to be in place, and there may be some policies, procedures or guidelines which should be in place but are not. If you are unable to locate anything you feel should be there, please drop the administration an email at info@irelandscouts.ie
Update: October 2nd 2026. The resources on this website have been updated with new items from issuu.com/scoutingireland on a few occasions during the past 12 months, last upload was yesterday. The “Arcade” page has been renamed “All Resources” and it has bee re-located on the header menu. It is understood that a project to create a new searchable website at scouts.ie has recently commenced, we will continue to update the resources here periodically until Scouting Ireland’s new website is up and running…
Update: November 3rd 2025. To ensure you are guided to the latest version of the resources and materials, the following changes have been made to this website today. It now redirects users to the relvant pages at scouts.ie for Safeguarding, Safety, and International. It also redirects users to scouting360.ie for ONE Programme resources. For the moment, some youth programme and health & safety materials may be found by searching the library. These will be removed when it is evident that access to them there is no longer beneficial to anyone.
