You can make friends and develop new interests in way that's both educational and fun. You want a break from the usual after school routine of homework, games and watching television? Then this is for you!

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 Scouts are encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities as part of their programme. The emphasis is on taking part and there are a number of badges and awards Scouts can work towards to recognise their commitment and achievements.

Being outdoors is important in the Scout Section and half the Programme is given over to taking part in traditional Scouting skills such as camping, survival and cooking as well as a wide range of adventurous activities, which can include anything from abseiling to yachting.

Our Troop has regular weekend camps and offers a Summer Camp every year, sometimes in the UK but we also offer the chance to take part in international travel and many of our Scouts have been on camps abroad - including Florida, South of France, Paris and Switzerland.
