General Information on Scouting

Scouting groups are open to both males and females and are split into 5 categories:-

  • Joeys: 6 - 8 years
  • Cubs: 8 - 11 years
  • Scouts: 11 - 15 years
  • Venturers: 15 - 18 years
  • Rovers: 18-26 years

The Scout Promise has three fundamental parts

  • Duty to your religious belief
  • Duty to one’s self, and
  • Duty to other people.

Scouting programmes seek to encourage in young people, attitudes which will stand them in good stead throughout the rest of their lives, such as initiative, self-reliance, responsibility, respect and consideration for others, while taking into consideration the level of development of the age group and of individuals.
