Joining for young people

There is high demand for Scouting in Hitchin. Therefore, to offer the maximum opportunities, we work together across the town and run a shared waiting list through Hitchin District.

Beaver Scouts are young people aged between 6 and 8. Our Beaver Colony meets on Thursday evenings between 5pm and 6pm.

Cub Scouts are young people aged between 8 and 10.5. Our Cub Pack meets on Thursday evenings between 6.15pm and 7.45pm.

Scouts are young people aged between 10.5 and 14.5. Our Scout Troop meets on Thursday evenings between 7.45pm and 9.15pm.

Scouting is open to all young people regardless of girl or boy, race or religion, ability or disability. We encourage our young people to do more, learn more and be more. We try to offer the opportunity to enjoy fun and adventure while developing the skills they need to succeed. We encourage teamwork, leadership and resilience – skills that have helped Scouts become everything from teachers to astronauts to Olympians!
