THE SECTIONS

BEAVER SCOUTS

The youngest section within Scouting, Beaver Scouts are for 6 and 7 year olds. Activities range from games to sleep-overs.

CUB SCOUTS

Cub Scouts offer more opportunities to 8 to 10½ year olds. Activities include weekend camps and the newly-introduced Cub Scout Award for Wales.

SCOUTS

Scouts offer a wide range of adventurous activities to 10½ to 14 year olds, while also helping to develop everyday skills.

EXPLORER SCOUTS

Explorer Scouting is for 14 to 18 year olds. Explorer Scouts are run at District level, giving members more opportunities of events.

SCOUT NETWORK

Scout Network is the final youth section that makes up Scouting in the UK. With an age range of 18 to 25, Scout Network is ideal for members who want to stay in Scouting, including those who are going away to university, as Network offers a flexible approach to Scouting.

SCOUT FELLOWSHIP

Beyond Scout Network lies the option of becoming a warranted leader or a sectional assistant, or becoming a member of the Scout Fellowship. The Scout Fellowship is for members who want to play an active role in Scouting, but without the commitment of running a colony, pack or troop night every week.
