Meeting
Beaver Scouts are young boys and girls usually aged between 6 and 8 years old. They belong to the first and youngest section in the scouting family. Our colony is a friendly and active place for you child to join – we get up to all sorts of things, including day visits, sleepovers, arts and crafts, exploring the outdoors each week, as well as an adventure packed annual residential or camp. For our young people it will be their first chance to spend a night away from home in Scouting.
Beavers currently meet Tuesday 6:00pm – 7:00pm

Beaver team members
All of our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe, inclusive and accessible. Some lead the Colony week in and week out. Others visit occasionally to help run a session or drop in to share their skills. No matter how much time you have to spare, find out about volunteering on your own terms.
