Over the years since my son joined 1st Abram, he has always enjoyed himself whether it’s been in the hut, on a trip, or camping. Daniel has met lots of people and made friends which have made him more outgoing and relaxed with other people. From his weekends away camping he has become more confident and become more of a leader. If your child likes to meet people, have fun, and loves the outside then scouting is definitely for them.

Being a Scout
Being a Scout helps young people grow as individuals and helps them find new skills. Scouts take part in loads of fun and adventurous activities.

Awards
Completing awards challenges you to do more, learn more and be more. See what’s on offer and start your journey to the top.
Scouts Promise
The Scouts promise is used by all sections from Scouts, upwards. It is even used by the leaders, when they join the movement.
Uniform and Badge Placement
You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them!
The Scouts’ uniform consists of a Teal Green coloured, long-sleeved shirt or blouse with a single breast pocket and button-down collar.
Moving up to Explorers
They say that all good things must come to an end, and Scouts is no different. When our young people reach the age of 14, they will start to look forward to joining Explorers, and taking their adventure to new heights, at 14 1/2.
