Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society. The Scout section is the third section in the Scout Group, following Beavers and Cubs, for young people aged between 10½ and 14 years old. In their Troops, Scouts make friends with like-minded young people from all walks of life.Together, they will earn badges and awards by taking part in both indoor and outdoor activities. When Scouts join they are 'invested' – making a promise to do their best and help others.
Scouts are encouraged to learn by doing, so our Scout Programme is filled with adventurous activities to develop their confidence, independence and skill set. With their Scout Leader, Scouts will plan a variety activities. You can expect Scouts to get involved in activities such as: • Community impact projects • Creative activities • Backwoods cooking • Camping • Hiking • Sports • Water activities
The Promise helps Scouts to understand and act in line with the values of Scouting; integrity, respect, care, belief and cooperation. Help your child choose the right Promise for them.
