Squirrels

About Squirrel Scouts:

Squirrels is our new section for four to six year olds, to help young people gain skills for life at a time when it matters most.

Every week, Squirrels will gather to grow and learn their way through lots of different games and activities

Squirrels can achieve anything they set their minds to – and they have lots of fun along the way.

The  weekly sessions are a brilliant opportunity for young people to take their first step into being part of Scouts, and they’ll help everyone get ready for the adventure of school too.

Sessions are packed with outdoors activities, fun, games, badges, laughter, and so much more to help our youngest members learn the skills they need for life. Of course, none of it would be possible without the support of the amazing leaders who plan and deliver such an inspiring programme. 

Awards

Completing awards challenges Squirrels to do more, learn more and be more. See what’s on offer and start your journey to the top.

Become an expert in something you love, or try something shiny and new. There’s a badge to suit each and every Squirrel.

You don't need the uniform to join, but once you've settled in, you'll be taking part in exciting activities and earning badges. So you'll need somewhere to put them!

Leaders & Volunteers

All of our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe and open to all. Some lead the Drey 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.
