Bexleyheath Scouts

 

 



So what is there for you after Scouts?

Explorer Scouts is the Section above Scouts and is for those aged between 14 and 17 years old, though as with all of the other Sections in Scouting there is some flexibility to allow you to move on at a time that suits you, maybe so that you finish awards in Scouts, go to camp with the Troop a final time or move on at the same time as your friends in the Troop.

Bexleyheath District has 1 Explorer Scout Unit which meets on Tuesday nights and is fed by all of the Scout Troops in the District as well as other members who have previously been involved in Guiding or haven't been part of either movement previously.

If you are a Scout in Bexleyheath then as you approach your 14th Birthday the Unit Leaders will be in touch with your Scout Leader and you to discuss when is a good time for you to move up from Scouts and they also invite the older Scouts in the District to a couple of events a year as a link into the Unit, most recently at Gilwell 24.

If you want further information about the Unit their latest programme is listed below and if you are interested in joining please e-mail moose@bexleyheathscouts.org.uk for further details or call the District Recruitment Line on 0845 094 6368

The Unit also has a group on Facebook with photos etc from recent events - please e-mail moose@bexleyheathscouts.org.uk if you want to join the ESU Facebook group as its set up so that to join is by invitation only.
