Would you like to support 11-14 year-olds as they grow from kids to confident teens, within a framework expressly designed to protect them from harm? In Scouts, 11-14yo’s learn to organise and run their own activities, as they explore nature and the outdoors, engage with the local community, and discover their own abilities in a myriad of areas. Scouts learn leadership skills and teamwork, safety skills, and earn badges for all of these things, as well as for pursuing their own hobbies and interests. No previous experience in outdoor activities is required (we will train you!), but you will get to do (and lead) bushwalking, bushcraft and camping, and will also have opportunities to pursue other adventurous activities like abseiling, cycling, snorkelling, archery and canoeing. You can also earn nationally-recognised qualifications at very minimal cost, through assessment of what you’ve learned and done in Scouts and elsewhere. Liddelow Scout Unit meets from 7-9pm most Mondays during school terms, with other activities on occasional weekends.
