Are you aware there’s a new travel requirement introduced by the UK Government?

Find out more about the ETA scheme and how it applies to your visit to Norjam:

Norjam sets a maximum 1:4 adult to young person ratio and a minimum of three adults per contingent to comply with Scout and Guide best practice.

Additional adults can join the staff team.

We can offer flexibility in ratio numbers to support Scouts and Guides with additional support needs.

All Unit Leaders MUST have either a NAN form (Scouting) or REN form (Girlguiding) approved by their local area, which will establish whether the leadership team has the required experience.  If you are unsure, please discuss with your local night’s away or camping advisor.

Norjam understand the importance of safety for all of its staff, leaders and participants.

As part of the planning process, the Norjam Team have been busy working with both the local authority’s “Safety Advisory Group” and The Scout Association to make sure everything is within policy.

In order to do this, organisers have used “The Purple Guide” as a reference document.

As such, the Norjam team are constantly collating and reviewing Risk Assessments, both Scout led and externally contracted – these are included in the risk assessments register available online. A link to these have been emailed out to the lead booking for each contingent group.

We do, however, urge contingent leaders to think about hazards and their own control measures to create their own risk assessment for what is within their control (e.g their camp). This will then compliment the suite of Risk Assessments compiled for the wider jamboree.

The submitted risk assessments for site and activities meet the requirements for POR and can be referenced (not copied) as part of a contingent’s individual risk assessment for submission of the nights away notification for their organisation.

The link to these risk assessments has been emailed to the contingent booking lead.

Contingents will be allocated zones each day full of different activities – your activity timetable will be given to you in your arrivals pack when you arrive on site.

Activities will run at Norjam between 9am and 12.30pm, break for lunch, then run again between 1.30pm and 5pm.

You can see a full list of activities here.

If you are a member of an International Scout or Guide association, you are very welcome to come to Norjam as a contingent group.

As a member of Jamboree Day Staff, you are allowed to be onsite from 9:00am – 5:30pm each day, Sunday to Friday, in line with the daily program of activities.

You cannot stay onsite to enjoy evening entertainment or activities or use the shower facilities or camp overnight.

Day Staff also do not receive a Jamboree neckerchief and cannot register for central catering, as these are for full time staff only.

NOTE: Staff catering bookings have now closed for Norjam 2025.

We are super excited that our catering will be provided by  His Majesty’s Royal Air Force based at RAF Marham, supported again by the Chelmsford & District Active Support Unit.   

Staff catering will run from the first meal on the evening of Saturday 9th August to the last breakfast on the morning of Saturday 16th August and include a hot or cold breakfast, a packed lunch and a hot or cold evening meal.

The fee is £95.00, in addition to the staff camping fee. That’s £4.75 a meal.

As we have kept our staff fees at a fair price, this still makes Norjam one of the most affordable Jamborees for 2025.

Please carefully read our Staff Catering Policy for full details.

If you haven’t booked onto staff catering, you can still buy food from our on-site vendors or you can choose to self-cater.

There is also a large supermarket and retail park with restaurants next to the Norfolk Showground.

If you are a member of an International Scout or Guide association, you are very welcome to join the staff team.

Although we are not expecting any issues, because RAF Marham is an operational base we wanted to be open and honest with you.

We will make every effort to ensure staff catering is delivered by working with the RAF.

Should there be any challenges in this, the management team will work together to offer the best solution and we will contact those booked on central catering in the event of any changes.

Staff roles are only open to those aged over 18 at the start of the jamboree who are members of the Scout Association or Girlguiding.

There are two 18+ venues for staff to enjoy.

The Norfolk Tavern will be our quieter, traditional pub and Mardis Gras is our noisier bar with music and events throughout the week.
