Scouting in Gloucestershire: Helping young people reach their full potential

Scouting in Gloucestershire

.

Scouts take part in a wide range of activities and "Participation" rather than meeting set standards is the new approach.  For Scouts who want to recognise achievements there are awards and badges.  

.

Most Scout Troop usually meet once a week, but also have an active programme of activities at weekends and during school holidays.

.

Scouts are often outdoors doing a wide range of adventurous activities, anything from abseiling or hill walking to sailing or raft building, as well as traditional Scouting such as camping and cooking.

.

But Scouts is not just for the adventurous, Scouts develop creative talents, find out about the importance of keeping fit and "explorer" the world in which they live. 

.

Scouts is about being with friends, as part of a team, and getting the most out of life.  Find your nearest Scout Troop by calling 0845 300 1818
