Cub Scout Home Safety Activity Badge (GDN)
Everyone should feel safe at home. You can help by preventing accidents and knowing what to do when they happen.
More than two million young people under the age of 15 have accidents in and around the home every year, for which they are admitted to accident and emergency units.
The Gas Distribution Network (GDN) have worked with The Scouts to create some fantastic activities to help young people be more aware of gas and carbon monoxide safety around the home, while understanding what they can do in the event of an emergency. The UK’s four Gas Distribution Networks look after the network of pipes that deliver gas safely, reliably, and efficiently to homes and businesses across England, Scotland and Wales.
How to earn the badge:
- Find out what to do about a burst water pipe, gas leak or electricity power failure in your home.
- Identify the common causes of accidents in the home. How they can be prevented?
- Find out how to protect your home from crime.
- Find out where the nearest public telephone box is to your house. Where else could you make an emergency call if the public telephone wasn’t working?
- Make a list of useful emergency numbers.
