Reporting an Incident
If an incident, injury, or near miss happens during a Scouting activity, it needs to be reported. Reporting protects the people involved, helps the council respond, and is a required step before an insurance claim can be processed.
The steps below are the same ones printed on the council's incident card. They are repeated here as text so they are searchable and readable on a screen reader, not locked inside an image.
| 1 | Take care of the injured and find a safe place. |
| 2 | Preserve and document evidence, and gather photos. |
| 3 | Notify your council and complete an incident report. |
| 4 | Use the resources below for online reporting and training. |
