This Electrical Safety Blanket Badge is perfect for giving or awarding to young people when raising their awareness of electrical safety. This could include learning to use their electrical gadgets safely and responsibly, identifying unsafe electrical products, avoiding risky trends, and understanding how to stay safe around electricity.
The badge is also great for anyone who wants to extend what they have learnt by earning their Cub Scouts Fire Safety Badge.
A full-colour non-uniform heat-transfer-printed badge with a merrow border.
Although this is not an activity badge, we think it would be worthwhile to incorporate activities around it to raise awareness of electrical safety.
Who is Electrical Safety First? The Electrical Safety First and Scouts Partnership.
Electrical Safety First is the UK’s leading charity dedicated to electrical safety. Their mission is to reduce the number of injuries and deaths caused by electricity in homes across the country.
They work in partnership with government bodies, the electrical industry, manufacturers, retailers, and consumer safety organisations to improve regulations and raise standards. Through our national media and digital campaigns, we share essential advice and guidance to help people stay safe around electricity every day.
'We’re so excited to be working with the Scouts to bring education, training, and practical resources to their amazing network. Together, we’re helping to create switched-on kids who know how to stay safe in an electrical world — and maybe even pass on a few tips to their parents too!'
