250 + New Videos - and this time the parents can benefit too! Brilliant Scouting was set up just over 6 months ago to help all of us with ideas for scouting, and to prove the value of online content. I see people logging in and using the ideas regularly and I wanted to build this to be something more. I've been paying to maintain the site personally since it started, and it's time to turn it into something that is more sustainable - and raise some money for a great cause! Here's what we're doing: - We have added 5 new categories that will be hugely valuable to parents as well as scouters. They are packed with ideas for different age groups - There are many ideas in there that will be useful for your programme, but also for keeping kids active, entertained and learning outdoors outside of scouting - The original 300 members will continue to have access for free, but now we have set up a nominal charge of $1 per month to cover the cost of the platform. - Once the costs of the site are covered, all the profits are going to go into the fund to help build a scout den for my local group in Dublin 15. How you can help: First - check out the new content - we have more than tripled the number of amazing videos on the site. All collated with the help of my Sister Helen and My Brother Creag. I think you'll agree this is an incredible resource! Second - Please copy this link into whatever whatsapp / email groups you have and encourage people to join for $1 per month, get great ideas for their own families and support scouting in Dublin 15. https://www.skool.com/brilliant-scouting-3743/about https://youtu.be/PlJfGm8p-oE

Hi Everyone, Hope you are all doing well and enjoying the community and ideas. I've had a few people ask me where you can get copies of the Brilliant Beaver Guidebook and Logbook. They are available in the Scout shop, but I'm also happy to post them out from my house. Just let me know how many you'd like, and you can revolut me (€12.95 for the Guidebook and €4.95 for the logbook). Each book I sell directly makes a contribution to our Scout Den fund. They were written for all Beaver Scouters (new and experienced) who are looking for ideas, and beavers who want to keep track of their activities, badges etc. A lot of scouters from other sections have bought the guidebook as well - many of the ideas can be easily tweaked for other older kids. If you would like to buy them in bulk, I can do a discount as well - just message me here and we'll figure something out. Thanks! James

It was great to meet everyone at Cruinniú yesterday. Thanks so much for signing up, I hope you are all getting value from the ideas in the community so far, and thanks for the great ideas that have started appearing - I love the Da Vinci bridge!! I was blown away with the response to the books. I hadn’t anticipated the demand for the logbooks and we actually sold out! I’ve ordered one more batch of the same ones, and I’m going to place a bulk order soon. If anyone has any suggestions for things that should be included or taken out, please let me know in the chat by Wednesday the 20th September. It will be hard to change it after that date. Thank for all your ideas and support Happy Scouting James
