The Scout section is for boys and girls aged 10½ to 14. Scouts take part in a wide range of activities as part of their programme. There are many awards that Scouts can work towards, including completing Challenges to gain the Chief Scout’s Gold Award. However, taking part and having fun is just as important as what you achieve as a Scout.
The balanced programme of activities encourages Scouts to find out about the world in which they live, know their own abilities, the importance of keeping fit and to develop their creative talents. There are also opportunities to explore their beliefs and attitudes.
Being outdoors is an important part of being a Scout. Scouts are able to learn new skills, such as camping, survival and cooking as well as a wide range of adventurous activities, anything from abseiling to yachting.
Scouting is about being with friends, as part of a team, participating fully in the adventure and opportunities of life. 1
