Any service given while holding an adult appointment as a member of the UK Scout Association counts towards the service awards. This includes service such as Secretary, Executive member etc. This does not cover service held in a training role such as a Rover Scout (or Mate) or Scout Network. However, if an adult appointment were held concurrently, this service would count.

Service in the Association is recognised by the Chief Scout’s Length of Service Award at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 year Intervals.
A certificate and either a cloth emblem or brooch with a white knot and
corresponding green number is available.
