Become a doer and a give-it-a-goer. Scouts ignore the butterflies and go for it, and soon so will you.


How does the waiting list work?

Once you’ve filled in the form we’ll check if there’s room in any of the Groups/Units you’ve requested. If there is then a volunteer will be in touch to offer a place and let you know when you can start.

If there’s no room then we will add you to our waiting list.

If you don’t hear from us, we appreciate your patience. Someone will only be in touch once a place becomes available.
