What we do

In Scouting we offer fun, friendship and adventure to young people in five sections according to age. There is an emphasis on outdoor activities throughout. The older sections take increasing responsibility for the running of their programme. Scouting is run by adult volunteers. Why not JOIN US?

Meet our five sections, where the fun happens!

Use our website

You will find out about the five sections for young people, about our centres where lots of things happen, about the support and training that all our adult leaders and helpers have available, and find links to other Scouting websites. If you are already with us, you will find lots of ideas and opportunities that you can follow up.
