Our cubs have a very full programming learning scouting and take part in frequent activities away from our headquaters including camps, walks, visits to local places of interest and lots of other fun activities.

  • Age ranges: 8 – 10½ Years
  • Meeting Times: Thursday 6:15pm 7:15pm
The Cub Scout section is for young people (boys and girls) usually between the ages of 8 and 10½.

These ages are flexible (to within six months either side), this allows for young people to move with their friends or when they are best suited to move on to the next section.  This makes sure the young people enjoy their time in Scouting as much as possible.

Cubs wear a green sweatshirt. The Cub Scout programme is packed with fun and adventure, and is designed to present every young person with new challenges and prepare them for when they become a Scout. Each Cub Scout will gain some of the 7 ‘challenge’ and 33 ‘activity’ badges that are available, during their time in the pack; and also have the opportunity to go camping. Many groups also take part in district led activities as well as organising day trips to places such as a theme park, zoo or local attractions.
