1st Borough Green Scout Group

 

We have a busy and fun-filled SCOUT pack that meets on Fridays from 7pm to 9pm (during school term).

What We Do, Why It Matters

Borough Green Scouts isn’t just about badges, uniforms or turning up every week. It’s about young people pushing themselves, learning what they’re capable of, and building the kinds of skills that no classroom can always teach. If you’re considering Scouts for your child (or maybe you’re curious), here’s a straight-talk on what Borough Green Scouts offers, how it works, and why it matters.

Adventures, Not Just Activities

At Borough Green Scouts, we do all the classic things you expect: camping, hiking, canoeing, perhaps abseiling. But it’s more than “doing stuff outdoors.” It’s about challenges — stretching comfort zones, getting muddy, learning resilience.

One week you may be trying something physically demanding; the next, something creative or skill-based. Scouts are do-ers.

Skill-Building for Life

We aren’t just preparing kids for Scouts. We’re preparing them for whatever comes next: school, exams, making friends, entering the workplace, handling setbacks. The Scouts’ programme is built around developing “Skills for Life.”

That means leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, communication. Those are the things that matter down the road. Borough Green Scouts aim to make sure every young person who joins comes away with more confidence and more tools for dealing with change.

Friendship, Belonging, Diversity

Make no mistake: Scouts is social. It’s a place to make friends, lots of them. But it’s not just the fun; it’s also belonging. Scouts welcomes all genders, races, abilities, backgrounds. There should be a place for every young person at Borough Green with their own pace, interest and ability. Scouts The sense of being part of something bigger — working together in teams, watching out for one another — builds character. It also helps young people believe they matter, that they belong somewhere.
