We are a Scout Group based in the heart of Winshill, Burton on Trent for young people aged between the ages of 4 and 14 with a over 80 young people Scouting actively every week.
Scouting in the UK provides adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for half a million young people (including 60,000 girls). Internationally over 28 million young people and 4 million adult volunteers enjoy the benefits of Scouting across 216 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.
The Sections
Here at 22nd Burton Scouts, we have four different sections that meet on three different nights of the week, all offering challenging and exciting activities.
