Currently, all sections for young people (Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers) are over-subscribed, and we are applying our waiting list policy at a meeting on the 9th of December to make decisions on to whom we can offer spaces.  As you know, we prioritise those children whose parents/carers are able to support the Group by volunteering - either as a leader or as a Trustee.

There is a little more information below on what those roles entail - some of you have already ticked the "willing to volunteer" box, but I want to be sure you know what you're signing up for.

Two young Scouts and a Scout Leader hand the Queen a bunch of flowers.

As a gesture of respect, and in line with precedent from Scouts Scotland, we are postponing our Annual Gathering and AGM this Sunday.  A revised date will be set in due course.

HM The Queen was our Patron and a great supporter of Scouts. She believed in the fun, adventure and skills for life we provide to young people.  Meetings of Beavers, Cubs and Scouts will continue next week.
