About Us

Scouting offers challenge and adventure to over 900 young people aged 4-25 in Wolsey alone. We believe in helping our members fulfil their potential by working in teams, learning by doing and thinking for themselves. We're working to make Scouting available to all and we're passionate about what we do.

The aim of Scouting is to develop young people to their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potential. Scouts should be able to learn new skills by taking part in fun and exciting activities in the air, on land or in water. Through the adventure of Scouting, the young people get to take risks in a safe environment, and have their first taste of responsibility. We give young people experiences they'll never forget!

The sort of adventure Scouting offers is the chance to experience something different and the opportunity to challenge yourself. When a Beaver Scout wakes up the morning after a sleepover, or a Cub Scout has just got over their fear of heights by completing a first abseil - that's Adventure!

In Scouting, we provide over 200 activities from abseiling to zorbing (that's rolling down a hill in a big beach ball in case you were wondering). If we don't have an instructor who can help, we can normally find someone who can. But Scouting isn't just about activities for their own sake. We encourage our young people to feel the buzz of the challenge and then reflect on what that means. Did they have fun? Do they feel more confident? Would they do it again?

This is what it means to all those involved ....
