At 8th Letchworth, Scouts join us at 10½ years and move up to Explorers between their 14th and 15th birthday. They are at the age where they can experience the true adventure that scouting has to offer, – from activities in the meeting place and helping in our local community, to gorge scrambling, rock climbing, sailing, hiking, raft building, camping and many more! We aim to give scouts a wide range of experiences and the opportunity to learn and develop new skills.
