More than just an activity
Scouts gives young people the chance to try new things, make friends and discover what they’re capable of.
From outdoor adventures and camping to creative challenges, teamwork and problem-solving, every week brings something different.
Along the way, our volunteers help young people to build confidence, independence and the skills they need for life.
Over 400 young people in Old Town and Wichelstowe take part in Scouts activities each week.
They might be camping, kayaking or climbing one week, then cooking, creating, solving problems or playing games the next.
Our local Scout Groups provide opportunities for young people to grow in confidence, make friends and gain skills for life – whatever their background or ability.
