        A Place in Scouting

        One of the Troop - awkward attempts at including disabled young people in Scouting in the Sixties

        Promotional 1966 29 mins

        CC AD

        Overview

        A fascinating insight into how disabled young people are inducted into the Scout Association and movement in the 1960s. Despite some laudable attempts at inclusion, it is clear that social awkwardness and ambivalent attitudes around "the handicapped" still pervaded the Scouting at that time. Spot film-maker Bryan Forbes making a celebrity appearance.
