The Cub Scout Promise:


I promise that I will do my best

To do my duty to God and to the Queen

To help other people

And to keep the Cub Scout Law.


The Cub Scout Law:


Cub Scouts always do their best

Think of others before themselves

And do a good turn every day.


The Cub Scout Motto:


Be Prepared


Alternative Promise


Scouting is available to people of all faiths as well as people who are humanist, atheist or have no affirmed faith and therefore must therefore take account of the different religious obligations or non religious beliefs of its Members. Similarly, people of other nationalities resident in the United Kingdom, who may become Members of the Association, owe allegiance to their own Country.


To meet these circumstances, there are different variations of the Beaver Scout, Cub Scout and Scout Promise that can be made, allowing for the individuals obligations while upholding the essential spirit of the Promise.
