You don’t need to be Bear Grylls to join us. You don’t need to have been a Scout when you were younger. You don’t even need to know how to put up a tent. Our door is open to people of all ages, genders, races and backgrounds, and we’re only able to change lives because people like you lend a hand. Whatever your skillset, lend a hand for as little or as much time as you can spare, and we promise you’ll get more out than you put in.
When you join Scouts, you’ll be introduced to lots of new activities, people and things. Scouts start small but think big, always challenging themselves to do more and be more.
As a parent you will be expected to volunteer to help the Scout Group.
Within Scouting we are guided by values:Beaver Scouts 6-7 years. Beavers try new things, make friends and have fun.
Cubs - 8 to 10½ years. Develop new skills. Soar to great heights. Being a Cub opens up a whole other world.
Scouts - 10½ to 14 years. Jump in and get muddy. Give back and get set. Scouts ignore the butterflies and go for it, and soon so will you.
Explorers - 14 to 18 years. Try more. See more. Do more. At Explorers, you’ll stand on your own two feet, and make memories to last a lifetime. Explorers may undertake the Duke Of Edinburgh Awards within Scounting.
