The aim of the Water Awareness Course is to provide Scouters and senior Scouts with preparative training to incorporate fun and safe water activities into their events. The course discusses safety equipment, the procedures for safe swimming and gives background to analysing the impact of weather on water activities.

On successful completion of the course, the Water Awareness Badge holder will be able to oversee swimming and rafting activities on flat water eg. Small dams and swimming pools (not running rivers).

Courses are open to all Adults and Scouts over the age of 14.5 years.
