With award winning training and full support you can experience the fun, friendship and adventure of Scouting for yourself on a flexible basis.

Do you have management experience. Could you be our next Chair? The Chair works with the Group Scout Leader and together they run the Scout Group. If you have a few hours a week to do this then get in touch.
