Information Packs

All new members of the Group will receive a “New Member” information pack. This gives a variety of information to both the youngster as well as the parent / guardian.

In addition, Beavers, Cubs & Scouts will be given an Information sheet relevant to their section on joining.

Some of this information may be downloaded using the links below:

Updated to reflect changes in Badges Autumn 2007


Gift Aid

As a charitable youth organisation, we are able to claim back from the Inland Revenue the portion of tax paid by you on the subscriptions that you pay to us. This is providing that you pay tax or capital gains tax at least equal to the tax we reclaim on the payments (currently 28p for every £1 you give). This will increase the overall income to the Group without costing you a penny more. If you have not already done so, please take time to complete the form and return it to the section leader. The form can be downloaded HERE
