Section Sizes
We currently have 24 Beavers, 15 Cubs and 21 Scouts in the Group .
Aged between 4 and 6, Squirrel Scouts are the youngest section in Scouting. The focus is on having fun and making new friends. There are opportunities to earn badges while trying out new activities including making things, playing games, meeting new people, going on visits and staying away from home on camps and sleepovers.
We have one Squirrel Drey in the Group, meeting on a Tuesday evening between 5:00pm and 6:00pm - find out more at the Squirrels page.
Aged between 6 and 8, Beaver Scouts follow on from the newly established Squirrel Scouts. The focus is on having fun and making new friends. There are opportunities to earn badges while trying out new activities including making things, playing games, meeting new people, going on visits and staying away from home on camps and sleepovers.
We have one Beaver Lodge in the Group, meeting on a Wednesday evening between 6:00pm and 7:00pm - find out more at the Beavers page.
Cub Scouts are aged between 8 and 10½. They meet in a Pack which is divided up into Sixes. The older Cubs are expected to take on responsibility for running parts of the meeting and helping to think of programme ideas. At Cubs the focus is on adventure: they go camping, try out water activities, visit new places and meet all sorts of different people. There are lots of Challenge Awards and Activity Badges to complete, offering something for everyone.
We have one Cub Pack in the Group, meeting on a Monday evening between 6:30pm and 8:00pm - find out more at the Cubs page.
The Scout Section is for young people aged between 10½ and 14. The Scout Troop is the final Section in the Scout Group. As a Scout you can take part in a wide range of activities. Scouts is all about finding out about the world we live in, knowing your own abilities, keeping fit and developing creative talents. It’s also important to explore your own values and personal attitudes.
We have one Scout Troup in the Group, meeting on a Tuesday evening between 6:45 pm and 8:30 pm - find out more at the Scouts page.
Explorer Scouts are aged between 14 and 18. Explorer Scout Units are part of the District rather than the Group, though many maintain close links with a particular Group. As an Explorer Scout you will be able to decide, along with the rest of the Unit, what you want to do. You can work towards the Queen's Scout Award and the Duke of Edinburgh awards, as well as other challenges and badges.
We do not currently have an Explorer Scout unit but there are several locally - find out more at the District Explorers page.
