The Scout Association provides adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for 1,000 young people aged 6-25, in Axe District. Throughout the UK there are 400,000 young members and internationally there are over 28 million young people enjoying the benefits of Scouting across 218 countries.

Personal development means promoting the physical, intellectual, social and spiritual well-being of the individual, helping them achieve their full potential. In Scouting, we believe that young people develop most when they are 'learning by doing,' when they are given responsibility, work in teams, take acceptable risks and think for themselves.
