Scouts are do-ers and give-it-a-go-ers. Yes, we go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling and canoeing.
Scouts are the fourth Section of the Scouting movement – from the first experimental camp for 20 boys in 1907, the movement now has an estimated 28 million members worldwide, and in the UK alone there are over 126,133 boys and girls involved in Scouts…
- Master new skills and try new things
- Make new friends
- Have fun and go on adventures, at home and abroad
- Explore the world around them
- Help others and make a difference, in their own communities and beyond
Week in and week out, they gather in groups called Scout Troops to conquer the small task of changing the world.

“Scouting has given me a fantastic opportunity to do lots of activities and things that people who are not in Scouts don’t get to do. It’s about having fun with good friends. I was selected to go the World Scout Jamboree in Sweden – it was awesome”
Gareth (11)
Scouts take part in a balanced programme that helps them to find out about the world in which they live, encourages them to know their own abilities and the importance of keeping fit and helps develop their creative talents, it also provides opportunities to explore their own values and personal attitudes
being outdoors is important and half the programme is given over to taking part in both the traditional Scouting skills such as camping, survival and cooking as well as the wide range of adventurous activities, anything from abseiling to yachting
