Scout Shops, formally “Outdoors”, the Scout Associations own equipment and Scouting goods retailer. The Association has now sold its retail outlets.

The local store used to be on St.James street in Nottingham, but this is no longer retailing as “Outdoors”. The Association continues to trade via the internet, and goods can be ordered directly from this site (click on the logo to be teken there). The West Bridgford District has also set itself up as a Scout Shops agency. This means anything you find on the web site can be ordered via any section leader. Whilst this may take a little longer to arrive, you will not be charged delivery and the discount of approximatly 10% will be passed on to you.


Blacks, the “Outdoors” chain of shops has been sold to Blacks, a long running company which has had close ties with both the Scout & Guide Associations for many years. They have recently purchased

the store on St.James street in Nottingham as well as their existing store in the Victoria Centre. They still offer a 10% discount to members of the Scout & Guide Associations.
