What we do!
SCOUTS IS ABOUT FUN, CHALLENGES AND ADVENTURE
It’s exciting being involved with us. We believe that through the everyday adventure of Scouting, young people and adult volunteers regularly experience new challenges that enrich their lives and meet life long friends.
Every young person in Scouting enjoys a balanced range of activities, events and experiences, based around subject areas we call Programme Zones. The zones vary depending on which of our Sections the young person is in, but they cover a huge range of activities, from outdoor and physical pursuits to community involvement, creative expression and learning about the wider world.
WHAT DO SCOUTS DO?
Scouts take part in activities as diverse as kayaking, abseiling, expeditions overseas, photography, climbing and zorbing. As a Scout you can learn survival skills, first aid, computer programming, or even how to fly a plane. There’s something for every young person.
ADVENTURE IS AT THE HEART OF EVERYTHING WE DO
We empower Scouts to maximize their experience by integrating elements from various zones into activities. As they grow, they gain more say in their choices. From nighttime hikes to backpacking adventures and first solo trips, Scouts embark on memorable journeys.
SCOUTING IS A BLANCED RANGE OF ACTIVITIES
In Scouting, youth engage in diverse activities, events, and experiences known as Programme Zones. These zones, tailored to each Section, span outdoor adventures, community engagement, creative expression, and global learning.
WE ARE THE BIGGEST MIXED YOUTH ORGANISATION
We change lives by offering 6 to 25-year-olds fun and challenging activities, unique experiences, everyday adventure and the chance to help others so that we make a positive impact in communities.
