Activities
Each scout section meets on one evening during the week. We also go to camps and take part in other activities at the weekends throughout the year. While activities depend upon age, all sections give young people the opportunity to learn by doing.
The main programme areas are: Outdoor and Adventure; Global; Community; Fit for Life; Creative; Beliefs and Attitudes. Scout Leaders are trained to deliver this programme, ensuring that our young people stay safe while they enjoy themselves and learn.
Recent activities include: five-a-side football, winter camping and climbing at Awesome Walls in Liverpool, I’m a Scout get me out of here, The Great Escape, summer camping.
Badges
Scouts of all ages work towards attaining awards in their chosen activities. There is a wide range of choice such as Fire Lighting and Cooking through to Arts, Crafts and Drama, Imagination and Public Relations.
