The Scout Association is the largest organisation in the Scout Movement in the United Kingdom. Following the rapid development of the Scout Movement from 1907, The Scout Association was formed in 1910 and incorporated in 1912 by a royal charter under its previous name of The Boy Scouts Association. It is a founding member organisation of the World Organization of the Scout Movement.
The organisation is the largest national Scout organisation in Europe, representing 35% of the participants of the European Scout Region.
As of 2024, the organisation claimed to provide activities to 444,682 young people (aged 4–18) in the UK. It also has 83,792 adult volunteers in leader roles and 68,974 adult volunteers in governance, support and other roles, including Network members. This is more than one adult for every 3 children under 18.
As well as Scout programmes, divided into those aged 10½–14 and older "Explorer" Scouts (aged 14–18 year), it now also operates other programmes for those too old to be Scouts (adult Networks for ages 18-25) and those too young to be Scouts and make the Scout Promise (Cubs aged 8–10½, Beavers aged 6-8 and Squirrels aged 4–6).
The organisation's current published aim is to provide "fun, adventure and skills for life and give young people the opportunity to enjoy new adventures, experience outdoors and take part in a range of creative, community and international activities, interact with others, make new friends, gain confidence and have the opportunity to reach their full potential".
