Scouts from Cardiff and the Vale have met with other members to help shape the future of their movement.
Around 500 members from across the UK met at a day-long youth forum at Oxford University in the first of a series of events being held during the spring.
The largest youth organisation in the country says it's aiming to create "its next decade of sustainable growth".
Cathie Steele from Barry, a lead volunteer for Cardiff and Vale Scouts, said: "I'm incredibly proud of the young people we took to the youth forum. They shared fantastic ideas and suggestions, helping shape the future of scouting."
"Hearing directly from young people and having them actively contribute to shaping our movement is essential to keeping scouting relevant and ensuring its continued positive, life changing impact."
"It's an experience that helps develop key life skills like confidence, public speaking, and teamwork. To support our young people, we do need more adult volunteers to get involved and help in many ways."
From every part of the UK, two Scouts aged between 10 and 14 and two Explorer Scouts aged from 14 to 18, supported by two adult volunteers, were invited to one of a series of forums to give as many members as possible the chance to examine future plans and suggest their own changes based on their experiences.
One of those who attended the Oxford forum, 13 year-old Jana Otri from Cardiff, said: "It's a great opportunity to learn about what other people think and what we think should happen to Scouts in the future."
"Young people always have new ideas, thoughts, and its great to have their viewpoint of what they really want to do."
Similar events are being held in the coming weeks in Belfast, Edinburgh and Manchester - including workshops about the role of youth voice in the Scouts' strategy
Some of the workshops specifically explored topics like advocacy, equity, diversity and inclusion, safety and safeguarding, sustainability and digital.
Dwayne Fields, who was recently appointed Chief Scout, said: "It's important that the future plans of the Scouts are informed by young people, so that's why it's essential that young people from Cardiff are able to contribute to the future of the Scout movement in the next ten years by having their say on our future plans."
Anyone interested in getting involved in the Scouts can visit their website or call 0345 300 1818.
