The UK Scout delegation departed for Seoul on the afternoon of the 5th from the Saemangeum Jamboree campsite in Buan-gun, Jeollabuk-do. The UK Scout delegation had decided to leave the 2023 Saemangeum World Scout Jamboree early.

The UK delegation of about 1,000 members prepared for early departure from the morning of the same day, gathered at the first parking lot, the assembly point within the site, waited for about three hours, and then departed for Seoul using the prepared buses. The delegation plans to move all members to hotels in Seoul, including Yongsan, over the course of three days starting that day.

The UK dispatched the largest number of youth participants among the participating countries, with over 4,500 young people attending this jamboree.
