Who are we?

Our District was formed on 1st April 1947 following separation from Birkenhead Scouts. Now, we are made up of over 30 sections spread across 12 groups, covering Bebington, Spital, New Ferry, Bromborough and Eastham.

Scouting is split nationally into Regions, Counties and Districts. We are a district in the Merseyside County of North West Region.

We are led by our District Team which is in turn led by our District Commissioner

What do Scouts do?

Scouts are do-ers and give-it-a-go-ers. Yes, we go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling and canoeing. But we also get to hang out with our friends every week – having fun, playing games, working in a team and taking on new challenges.

As Scouts, we believe in empowering young people with skills for life. This means that we strive to enrich our young people by providing fun and challenging activities, unique experiences, adventure and the chance to help others so that we make a positive impact in communities.

With groups meeting every night of the week, we are certain you will find a group that fits your needs. Please feel free to look around and see what we're up to, and if something catches your interest, why not drop us a line and get involved!

Scouts prepare young people with #SkillsForLife

Each week Scouts gives almost half a million people aged 6-25 the skills they need for school, college, university, the job interview, the important speech, the tricky challenge and the big dreams: the skills they need for life.

We’re talking about teamwork, leadership and resilience & skills that have helped Scouts become everything from teachers and social workers to astronauts and Olympians.

Everyone’s welcome here. All genders, races and backgrounds. Regardless of your child’s physical ability – there’s a Scout adventure out there waiting for them. And we’ll help them find it.

We’re part of a worldwide movement, creating stronger communities and inspiring positive futures.
