Welcome Greater Manchester West County Scouts Online

GMWBadgeThe county (Greater Manchester West) covers the Metropolitan boroughs of Salford, Trafford and Wigan.

The county is very active and we hope this website will give you an insight into what we do.

2009 2MAD4 Leaders

The 2009 2MAD4 Leaders was held at Middlewood in June. 2MAD4L stands for 2 multi activity days where they can learn new things, do service on the site, meet old and new friends, take part in the competition and most of all have fun. This year they could question the CC and others in "Question Time", Slack line, play bucketball, build egg rockets, create a Tibetan prayer flag amongst other items. All attendees did manage to achieve the "Womble" Award, based on the Chief Scouts Gold award. The winners were the Noos Noos.  Download the full results from here. Watch out for a more adventurous 2MAD4 Leaders next year.
