For Young People:
When can my child join Scouting?
Starting age for Squirrels is 4 and we do have some Squirrel sections in our area, Beavers is usually 6, but this will depend upon the Scout Group’s own waiting list policies. Looking ahead, children can join Cubs from around the age of 8 and Scouts from 10 and a half. Explorer Scouting starts at 14 and runs until Scouts are 18.
How will my child benefit from joining Scouts?
Parents tell us their children benefit hugely from the adventures, fun and friendships they experience. It can help develop your child’s social skills and independence, and give them access to some amazing and memorable opportunities.
Lonsdale Scouts is part of West Lancashire Scouts. If you are ready to enquire about joining please click the link below and you will be taken to the West Lancashire Joining Form. This link will open in a new window.
