Kevin

It works for me now Kevin. So do the links on that page.

I get the same error as I did earlier this morning (just for Company), which I assumed was the same error Kevin was seeing:

  Code:

Server Error in '/dnn' Application.

The documents are a good idea and are quite well done. A lot of the content is unfortunately just a copy/paste from BP&P and thus maintains a lot of the useless talk from the Outdoor Guide. It would have been better to paraphrase the legal content into useful content.

Quite right Allan. That link is not working. I'll get on to Barry immediatelt Thanks

Thanks to our super efficent IT department, Seriously thanks to Barry and Nolan, the link is now working properly.

Adult Leaders should not:
...
Demonstrate first aid on a youth member.
...

Could someone please explain why I should not be demonstrating how to tie a sling using one of my scouts.

Thank you everyone for replying

This is the Link to the English page. I did NOT copy and paste the French Link, but it is there as well and does work. Sorry about that. Cheers.

Richie,

I went and looked on page 8 of the Troop guide (and the surrounding pages) and I did not see the part you're referring to at all.


If it's there, I think maybe it's more appropriate to demonstrate on another adult and have youth practice on each other? I could be wrong, but that would be my guess! Does it not elaborate? And... where exactly is it?

Sorry page 6 bottom left.

Yes I guess that is what I'll do but I would prefer to have the youth as involved as possible. It helps to keep their attention.

@Ritchie @Kaylee

Adult Leaders should not:
• Show favouritism for particular youth members.
• Invite youth member(s) alone to your home or other
private accommodation.
• Have private talks with individual youth members away
from the presence of other Scouts or adults.
• Carry one youth member alone in your vehicle.
• Go on a hike or other activity with one youth
member alone.
• Demonstrate first aid on a youth member.
• Assist youth members with personal hygiene or dressing
except where health or disability requires it and then
only in the presence of another adult.

Kaylee is quite correct Ritchie, it is not appropriate, today any more, for adults to demonstarte anything using the Youth for that demonstartion. Mucxh better to use an adult and nat have even the possiblity of a misinterpretation. That's the way things are and that is the policy.
