At the heart of the Programme lie the six areas of personal development. These are Body, Mind, Faith and Beliefs, Relationships, Community and Surroundings. Leaders help young people to grow and develop in each of these areas through their involvement in the Balanced Programme. The Balanced Programme therefore provides the framework for the weekly meetings and all the other activities that Scouts of any age can take part in.

The new Balanced Programme is all about joining in, or participating. There is much less emphasis on passing tests, and a much greater emphasis on encouraging young people to learn from taking part.
