[25] Following the launch of the Squirrel section across the UK in September 2021, NISA Dreys were merged into Scout Association Groups in the Province.

[28] The Aim of the Association was '...to promote the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potential, as individuals, as responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities.'

[33] Youth members wore a loose-fitting navy sweatshirt[34] and were allowed to wear the scarf of a Scout Group with which they were linked.

The provincial, county and district badges of The Scout Association could also be worn on the right arm.

This brought its own confusion for leaders who were also adult members of The Scout Association, as Squirrel Leaders were not able to wear the Membership Badge as the organization was not a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement.

After 2013 a new navy and lime Squirrel Association logo badge was worn on the right breast of such uniform.
