Lord Baden-Powell Society
It gives the Lord Baden-Powell Society (LBPS) greatest pleasure to announce that we have this month presented our Immediate Past Chief Commissioner of Australia, Mr Phil Harrison AM, with the Lord Baden-Powell Society Patron statuette.
Phil spent the morning at the National Office where we took the opportunity to present him with the statuette in the presence of the Scouts Australia National Support Team.
Phil has been a long-standing financial contributor to the Lord Baden-Powell Society for the past 26 years and we are very proud to have him as one of our major beneficiaries who continues to donate year after year.

A quote from one of the Society’s long-standing donor reads, “If my annual donations play a part in helping just one young Scout along the difficult road to a happy and fulfilled life, they will have been worth every cent.” – Lt. Col. Murray OAM
It is with great thanks to our past and present donors, that the Lord Baden-Powell Society (LBPS) has been able to provide financial support, over the last 40 years, to our Scouting youth members to enable them to be able to attend National and International Scouting events such as, The Australian Jamboree.
As part of our Jamboree Appeal for the 40th year celebration of the Lord Baden-Powell Society (LBPS), please consider donating as little as: $4, or $40, or $400, or as much as $4,000.
Our Australian Jamboree Appeal still stands at $150,000 by December 2024. If you are looking to contribute and support the Lord Baden-Powell Society, please contact us at (02) 8440 5908 or email Rita at rita.cirardi@scouts.com.au.
