Scouts is for boys and girls aged 10½-14. There are Scout Troops in all Groups.
As a Scout you can take part in a wide range of activities as part of your programme. This could be anything fro m Abseiling to Zorbing, and there are a number of Challenge Awards and Activity Badges to earn along the way. Scouts is all about finding out about the world we live in, knowing your own abilities, keeping fit for life and developing creative talents. It’s also important to explore your own values and personal attitudes. Being outdoors is important and there are many opportunities to learn the traditional Scouting skills, such as camping, survival and cooking as well as the wide range of adventurous activities, anything from abseiling to yachting. Within the District, the Scouts have an adventurous programme. Climbing weekends, camping, water weekends and challenge hikes are always in the diary. For more information within the District, please contact us using the online form. The national Scout website is packed with games, competitions, badge information and lots more interesting stuff for Scouts to read about, best to have a look at www.scouts.org.uk/scouts.
