Our Events

Summer Camps

Since 2005, MSF has been organising summer camps for young people across the UK, creating enriching experiences that foster personal growth, teamwork, and community spirit. The camps are split between the North and South regions, ensuring accessibility for participants from various parts of the country.

Over the years, these camps have grown significantly in popularity, with a combined attendance of around 3,000 young people annually across both regions. Each camp offers a diverse range of activities, including sports, workshops, and outdoor adventures, all designed to engage and inspire the next generation.

The MSF summer camps have become a cornerstone for youth engagement, providing a safe and supportive environment for young people to learn new skills, make lifelong friends, and create lasting memories.

Olympics

Since 2007, MSF has been hosting its annual Olympics, an exciting event that brings together young people from across the UK to compete in various sports and activities.

Originally introduced as a one-day event, the MSF Olympics quickly gained popularity, leading to a significant increase in demand. To accommodate the growing number of participants, the event has since expanded and is now split into three separate days—two events held in the South and one in the North.

This new format allows for greater accessibility and participation, ensuring that more young people can experience the thrill of competition, teamwork, and sportsmanship.

The MSF Olympics has evolved into a major highlight of the year, fostering a sense of community, healthy competition, and the spirit of athleticism among thousands of young participants.

International Jamboree

MSF has successfully hosted two major jamborees, the first in 2017 and the latest in 2023, both of which have become landmark events for the organisation.

The 2023 jamboree was particularly notable, drawing in an impressive 3,500 participants and marking it as one of the largest gatherings MSF has ever organised. This massive event was packed with a wide array of activities, including sports, workshops, team challenges, and cultural performances, all designed to engage participants of all ages and interests. The jamboree created a vibrant atmosphere, providing a unique platform for young people to connect, learn, and celebrate their shared experiences.

With the next jamboree already scheduled for 2026, MSF is set to build on this success, promising another unforgettable event that will inspire and unite even more young people from across the UK.

Iftar Under the Stars

Iftar Under The Stars, launched in 2013, aims to help build the awareness of scouting around the UK and bring families together whilst embracing the outdoors during the blessed month of Ramadan.

The event puts on display some light fun, scouting activities that the whole family can engage in together even whilst fasting. With activities ranging from highly demanded archery and rifle shooting, to scouting traditions of fire lighting, to calming cultural activities such as calligraphy, there is always something for everyone.
