Jump in and get muddy. Give back and get set. Scouts ignore the butterflies and go for it, and soon so will you.
When you join Scouts, you’ll be introduced to lots of new activities, people and things.
Scouts are a go-getting group of young people aged 10 ½ to 14 who: Master new skills and try new things
Week in and week out, they gather in groups called Scout Troops to conquer the small task of changing the world.
Build and develop your confidence, sense of adventure and outdoor skills. Explore you beliefs and attitudes and be creative. Gain independence and put these skills into practice at camps and even on international trips.
Scouts start small but think big, always challenging themselves to do more and be more. It starts with an award. Who knows where it might lead?
As a values based movement we all make the ‘The Promise’ an oath that helps us to be our best
Eventually, it’ll be time embrace your next big adventure.
You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them!
All of our leaders are trained volunteers working to make Scouts the best it can be, but we don’t just need swashbuckling adventurers to lead our expeditions. We also need tidy-uppers and tea-makers and great listeners from all walks of life – for as much or as little time as they can spare.
