About Us

First established in 1929, we are a long established, diverse Scout group based on the fringes of the beautiful Holmwood Common, run by a welcoming and enthusiastic volunteer adult team with a collective ethos to have fun, whilst learning new skills and to develop characterful young people within our community.

As a member of our Group we hope, and will endeavour to ensure that your child can help to make the world a better place. Scouting makes a positive contribution to society by helping young people to develop as active members of the community who:

• Are self-reliant,
• Are caring,
• Are responsible,
• Show commitment.

They do this by:

• Taking part in a variety of activities and new experiences,
• Exploring the outdoors,
• Participating in teams,
• Taking responsibility,
• And of course, having lots of FUN!
