Our Beaver Scout Colony has members aged 6 to 8. They meet together as a Colony and work within small groups called Lodges. A team of adult volunteers, along with young leaders and parents, run the Beaver Colony to ensure a fun, safe, and adventurous programme.

What Beavers do

Beavers take part in a wide range of activities to learn, explore, and have fun:

• 🏞️ Exploring nature and the outdoors
• 🎨 Creative projects, crafts, and making things
• 🎵 Singing, games, and social activities
• 🧭 Investigating science, technology, and the world around them
• 🤝 Helping others and learning to care for their community

Badges and Awards

Beavers work towards challenge awards and activity badges. With regular attendance and commitment, they can achieve the Chief Scout’s Bronze Award – a significant achievement recognising effort and skill.
