About Us

We deliver everyday adventure over 4 nights a week to around 140 young people, aged 6-14 years.

We are based in Market Harborough,  within the Harborough District and Leicestershire Scouts.

We now have seven sections, made up of two Beaver Colonies, two Cub Packs and three Scout Sections.

Our sections are arranged as follows:

Our Story

Sections

Beavers are our youngest members, and generally meet for an hour per week. They enjoy all that Scouting has to offer; being introduced to outdoor activities, having the opportunity to be creative, explore their local community and experience the excitement of a Beaver Scout sleepover with their friends.

For Cubs, excitement and adventure are key. Their programme offers a huge variety of activities surrounding areas of fitness, global and beliefs; whilst allowing them to be creative and get involved in their local communities. Cubs are introduced to exciting outdoor skills and take part in adventurous activities, as well as camps and residential experiences.

Scouts aims to build and develop young people’s confidence, sense of adventure and outdoor skills, as well as encouraging them to explore their beliefs and attitudes and be creative.  It offers them the independence to put these skills into practice at camps and even on international trips.
