Introduction
This is the DVD Scouting has been waiting for - a complete and fully interactive celebration of the Movement. With nearly two hours of rare and archive footage, you choose your own journey through Scouting history. From its earliest days to 28 million Scouts worldwide, this is the inspiring story of a global phenomenon.
Celebrating 100 years of adventure
Scouting is the world’s largest youth movement working for peace. Founded 100 years ago by Robert Baden-Powell, it has given millions of young people and adults the adventure of a lifetime. Scouts are known, not only for their love of the outdoors and good humour but for their sense of responsibility towards themselves, the world and others. It is their willingness to help, enthusiasm and appetite for life that marks them out.
This DVD is the ultimate celebration of both Scouts and Scouting. With contributions from famous former Scouts including Stephen Spielberg, Sir Richard Branson and Sir David Attenborough, it is packed with little known facts, practical know-how and inspiring messages of hope from Scouts around the world.
