· When they are finished in 6 months' time, complete the following form and follow the payment link at the bottom of the form.
· The payment is €5. Please ensure that you use the payment link before submitting the form and that after you have paid you return to the form and hit submit.

For Beavers and Cubs who are registered for the award through the old process, their award can be completed through the old process or the new process.
