Every child has the right to an adventure. Life is about grabbing opportunities. The prizes don’t always go to the biggest, the best and the strongest – they go to those who persevere. These are simple life lessons that Scouting teaches. Scouting’s 500,000 members are an inspiration. It's great to see it. It's all about friendship and fun and adventure – people who might not normally have the chance for adventure. Scouts are shining lights in their communities

We are always seeking more support in our Beaver, Cub, Scout & Explorer sections. Whatever skills you can offer we would be pleased to hear from you! We appreciate that not everyone can commit on a regular basis and we are flexible to fit with whatever commitment you can offer. Full training will be given and there is always lots of help and support available from all our existing leaders. If you would like a chat, without any obligation, why not see what you can do for Scouting and see what Scouting can do for you?

We were very proud to see Shay Norman one of our Explorer's gain his Queen's Scout Award, the highest award in Scouting last night.
Shay's hard work towards the challenge over his time as a young person in Scouts culminated with a very honest and humorous presentation to over 50 people including his explorer unit and officials from the District and County.
Shay is a role model to others and we hope he keeps up his fantastic work in scouting.
