Fancy joining us? Have a look at our current vacancies and join the team.

If you're 14 to 18 and want to enjoy Scouting you can do so by joining Explorer Scouting. As an Explorer Scout you get to take part in all the usual great Scouting activities such as kayaking, climbing, orienteering... as well as work on projects helping to support your local community.

You can also, if you choose, get more closely involved in working with the younger Sections as a Young Leader.
