The Scout Section is for young people, usually aged between 10½ and 15 years. and is the third and final Section in the Scout Group.
Scouts are encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities as part of their programme and for the Scout who wants to be recognised for his or her achievements there are a number of Challenges Awards and Activity Badges.
Being outdoors is important and half the Programme is given over to taking part in both the traditional Scouting skills, such as camping, survival and cooking as well as the wide range of adventurous activities, anything from abseiling to yachting.
