Scouts

Scouts take on bigger challenges and greater adventures. From camping and hiking to teamwork and leadership skills, Scouts are encouraged to push themselves, try new things and grow as individuals while having plenty of fun.
Venture Scouts
Ages 15-17.
Venture Scouts plan their own adventures and projects. This section focuses on leadership, teamwork and personal development, with opportunities for outdoor challenges, community involvement and new experiences that prepare young people for the future.
Rover Scouts
Ages 18-25.
Rover Scouts is a community of young adults who lead, serve and explore. Members take on meaningful projects, outdoor adventures and leadership roles while giving back to their community and continuing their personal journey in Scouting.
Skills for Life Start Here
Through our programmes, young people make lasting friendships, learn valuable life skills, and take part in experiences they won’t find anywhere else, from outdoor adventures and community projects to leadership opportunities and awards.
It’s not just about what they do each week; it’s about helping them develop skills for life in a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where everyone belongs.
