Had a fantastic weekend at Timble Woods. All the Scouts built their own bivouacs and really enjoyed a night camping under bivys!

Summer Camp parents evening

There is a parents meeting about Summer Camp on Wednesday 5th May.

Parents of Scouts attending the Group Summer Camp in Belgium in August are reminded that there is an important meeting on Wednesday 5th May at 19:30.  Please make sure you attend as there will be critical information given about the camp, including key dates, luggage information, health forms and kit lists.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Summer term programme added to the website

Please visit the programme page to see details of what’s on at Scouts between now and the summer holidays

The lighter nights are upon us so our programme for the rest of this Scouting year takes advantage of this and sees us trying to get outside as much as we can.  There is a good balance of fun and Scouting skills – of course the two go together anyway – and lots of opportunity to practice things and learn new skills in preparation for Summer Camp in Belgium.

Please take time to look at the programme, and if you have any questions, ask Spider.

New Year update – important news

Happy New Year to all Scouts and Parents.  Please see below important information about Hag Dyke, Summer Camp and the spring programme.

Summer Camp 2017

Plans for Summer Camp this year are advancing quickly.  Please see below the second circular which provides more information about the camp and gives a schedule of when payments must be received.  In the coming weeks we will put a dedicated page on the website for Summer Camp where all the letters and forms issued will be stored so you know where to go to find any information.
