The In Touch System of communication for Nights Away events and activities is now being used in the Brunel Scout District
Whenever any activity or event is run within Scouting it is a requirement that an In Touch system of communication is in place (POR 9.3). This is to ensure; everyone involved is aware of how communication will take place between Leaders, Adults, Young People at the event and those not on the event. There needs to be details of who is present on the event should anything go wrong and how comunication will be managed in the event of an emergency.
The procedures put in place to ensure this are likely to vary for different types of events due to the differing circumstances and needs.
Below is a fact sheet and presentation to support Leadership teams with setting up their In Touch Systems.

For information, I’ve updated the on-line Activity Notification Form and Nights Away Form to remove ‘Home Contact’ information and to replace with an ‘InTouch’ question.
