The Boys' Brigade has been around for more than 110 years and is part of the boyhood experience of many adults. We resist the temptation to live in the past because our function is to serve today's young people.
Our Founder, Sir William Alexander Smith, included in our Object "The Promotion of habits of Obedience, Reverence, Discipline, Self-Respect and all that tends towards a true Christian manliness" and that has not been changed.
What has changed is how we go about promoting that object. We recognise that the influences surrounding our young people are not always helpful and that too many lose control at great cost to themselves, their families and the community. The answer is to catch the energy and enthusiasm of youth and to channel it purposefully.
The Boys' Brigade develops a boy's awareness of his own community and creates opportunities for service.
The Boys' Brigade develops latent leadership qualities so that boys become contributors to the life of their community - not just takers.
The Boys' Brigade encourages boys to get involved in their Company, their Church and the community, and this involvement means taking responsibility for what happens.
The Boys' Brigade does not confine itself to well motivated and properous young people. It offers support and interest to the less fortunate and recognises the value of adult interest as young people develop.
The 9th Kilmarnock Boys' Brigade Company is lead by trained adult christian volunteers, whose main interest is in the development of the young people within the local community.
This includes participation in a structured programme of BB training courses supplemented by specialist training (Leadership,First Aid, Canoeing etc.)
All staff have undertaken to adhere to Child Protection Policy requirements.
All Staff hold Criminal Record Disclosure documents, which can be viewed if required
