Forest Of Dean Scouts

About Forest Of Dean Scouts

We believe all young people have the right to an adventure. This could be a Beaver Scout spending their first night away from home or an Explorer Scout going on their first international expedition, but adventure is at the heart of what we do.

From abseiling down a cliff to zorbing on a lake and lighting a fire to paddling on the beach – Scouting is all about everyday adventure. Our members participate in some of the most varied activities imaginable, all while having fun and learning how to get the most out of life.

Every section has different activities, meet at different times and in different places. There’s always something different, exciting and new going on. As part of a movement with over 30 million members worldwide the opportunities are almost endless.

We prepare more young people with the skills for life, supported by amazing leaders who deliver inspiring programmes. We are growing, inclusive, shaped by young people and making a bigger impact across the Forest of Dean.
