Young Leader Unit
The Young Leader Unit is a part of the Explorer Section and members of this unit may also be active members of an Explorer Unit such as Nexus. Young Leaders are those aged between 14 and 18 who are giving back their time, skills and knowledge to help with the Beaver, Cub or Scout sections in the Group.
Young Leaders will take part in a formal training programme, leading to the Young Leader Belt. This training covers a range of leadership skills to help develop the individual in working with and training others.
The Young Leader Unit and training is coordinated with meetings held approximately every two months.
This page will be updated with information relevant to Young Leaders.

The Great Indoors
We know the coming days and weeks are going to be difficult for families across the UK, with the risks associated with Covid-19, the impacts on family life and the closure of schools.
We often talk about the "OUT" but in these unprecedented times we need to focus on the "IN" in Scouting.
The table below provides some links to things you might like to try. Keep a record of all those you attempt and we will be producing a special "SCOUT-IN" badge for you to wear when we restart meetings.
