Our Scout Troop is open to boys and girls between the 10 and 14 years old.  Our Cubs Pack provides an automatic feeder into our Scout Troop between the age of 10 and 10 and a half. 
 
If you are looking for action and adventure you've come to the right place.  Our weekly meeting is on Friday from 7.30 til 9.30 p.m.  If you would like to drop in for a meeting please use the Contact Us page on this web site.  
 
Over the past 2 years we have tried to ensure that there is at least one activity or camp per month.  We usually have a sponsored camp or activity for charity.  The last sponsored camp was a cardboard city camp to highlight the plight of the homeless.  Sometimes a day out for the Troop is organised e.g ice skating.  Also at Christmas a day out is usually arranged.  Archery is popular, the Scouts all enjoy this activity.
 
Almost all the scouts who have stayed until they are 14 have gained their Chief Scouts Gold Award.  This is the highest award available to a Scout and is achieved by completing 8 of the Challenge Badges
