Our services are provided free of charge (excluding the purchase of games associated with our services).&nbsp;ScoutWired is funded by donations and the sale of badges and merchandise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We aim to provide as much support as we can for Scout and Guide groups as well as individuals involved in Scouting and Guiding, to get online and connected.<s>,<\/s>&nbsp;This is especially important during JOTI, where we will be providing services to get Scouts and Guides talking to each other on an international level. We are an organisation that is youth-led, with adult support. This means that we want to provide opportunities for all members of scouts and guides, no matter what section or age. We have many different teams that support our organisation. Speak with any of our team members and ask about opportunities or options for ways you can interact on ScoutWired!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our team are all carefully selected and trained to ensure the effective running of the services we provide.
