Three volunteers from Somerset have been selected to represent their country on an international stage.
Harrison Cox, Neil Blake, and Alexa Rant will help deliver the World Scout Jamboree in Poland in 2027.
They are part of a 600-strong UK team supporting the major international event, which brings together more than 50,000 young people aged 14 to 17 from around the world.
Harrison said: "This is my first time at a World Scout Jamboree as a volunteer.
"I’m really looking forward to meeting new people, especially from Zimbabwe – I’ve never met Scouts from there before.
"This is an exciting chance for me to develop my skills in international volunteering."
The World Scout Jamboree is held every four years in a different country and gives young people the chance to experience a global gathering focused on friendship, cultural exchange, and outdoor adventure.
Volunteers help deliver the event by running exciting outdoor activities, supporting cultural exchanges or helping deliver large-scale events celebrating the diversity of global Scouting.
Alexa said: "The World Scout Jamboree is so well known and so massive, I’ve heard so much about it and can’t wait to go.
"There’s some great support availability both from the jamboree organisers and the UK contingent that means you don’t need loads of experience to take on a volunteering role like this.
"I want to help lots of young people have a brilliant experience.
"I’d love to be a part of the archery team.
"I’m working on earning my archery permit so I can run sessions in my local area, and it’d be great to bring these skills to the World Scout Jamboree."
Neil Blake said: "It’s great fun volunteering for Scouts, and I even met my wife through it.
"After 25 years of volunteering, attending the World Scout Jamboree will allow me to offer young people some joy and fun whilst taking part in activities with others from across the world."
Chief Scout Dwayne Fields said: "Congratulations to Harrison, Neil and Alexa and all the UK volunteers heading to the World Scout Jamboree in Poland.
"Opportunities like this are what Scouting is all about, bringing people together, building confidence, and showing young people what’s possible when they step outside their comfort zone."
