Investiture badges and Uniforms

The badges above are the World badge, County badge, District Badge and Group Name Tape. The World Badge, or a version of it, is worn by over 28 million scouts worldwide.   The county badge bears the cross of St Cuthbert and the district badge a roman helmet, representing Chester-le-Street’s Roman heritage. You will get these badges when you join your section, and should be worn with pride.

Where do they all go?

Where can I buy the uniform?

Uniforms and Scout related items can be bought online from the Scouts Website or items can be bought at the County’s Scout Shop at Moor House.

Moor House can be found four miles northeast of Durham City, just off the A690, 1 mile east of junction 62 of the A1M (opposite Ramside Hall Hotel and Golf Course). The site is accessed from the top of the lay-by on the A690, through white iron gates and down a private tarmac road to a large, tarmac, well-lit car park.

The onsite shop sells the range of Scout and Guide uniform, badges, literature, accessories and gifts, as well as souvenir badges, mugs and woggles with the campsite bat logo on.
