Does anyone know where I should sew on the st Georges day parade badge?

Is it an official Scout badge, or a fun one? If the former, I'd guess on the left hand side above the purple membership badge. If the latter, TBH it depends on your Scout Group. Technically, unofficial badges are not supposed to go on uniform at all, but some places are less militant than others on that (especially for younger sections). Otherwise, it goes nicely on a camp blanket.

It's an official one. I put the jubilee one above the pocket.

If it's an official badge, then it will go where the Jubilee badge is now. Technically you are only supposed to wear one of these 'occasional' badges at a time, although some groups will turn a blind eye to this. Unfortunately for my cubs, I'm a bit fussy about this, and would encourage extra badges to be put on a camp blanket instead.

Agree with @budgiegirl@budgiegirl

Argh, stupid phone and stupid page! Was going to say, as the Jubilee is a kind of all year thing, if you have a Jubilee badge already I'd leave it on and put St George on a blanket.

@budgiegirl is right. You would only wear one occasion badge.

We encourage other badges to be sown onto a blanket. As we do with unofficial badges.
