Scouts (age 10½ to 14)
The Scout Section is for young people aged between 10½ and 14 years. A young person can come in to the Troop at 10 and may stay until they are 15 years old. The Scout Troop is the third and final Section in the Scout Group. As a Scout you can take part in a wide range of activities as part of your programme. There are a number of Challenge Awards and Activity Badges to earn along the way. Scouts is all about finding out about the world we live in, knowing your own abilities, keeping fit for life and developing creative talents as well as having fun and making new friends. It’s also important to explore your own values and personal attitudes.

Explorers (age 14 to 18)
Explorer Scouts are aged between 14 and 18. Explorer Scout Units are part of the District rather than the Group, though many maintain close links with a particular Group. As an Explorer Scout, you will be able to decide, along with the rest of the Unit, what you want to do. You will be able to gain badges such as the Chief Scout's Diamond and Platinum Awards. The highest award you can earn is the Queen's Scout Award. This is recognised by many employers as the sign of someone that is enthusiastic, dedicated and reliable.
We have an Explorer Scout Unit linked to the group and is run jointly with the 27th Norwich, they meet at our Scout HQ and are very involved with Group. Many of its members were members of our Group before moving on to the Explorer Scout Unit.
