Welcome to Wokingham Scouts

 

Hello and welcome to the home page of Scouting for Wokingham. Believe it or not Scouting is still very much alive in Wokingham and enjoyed by nearly 600 young people.  Of course this number is only a very small percentage of the young people who live in Wokingham but as a competing activity with so many other activities we are pretty popular.

Scouting offers so much to both young people and adults alike.  Admittedly most of our adults work hard for the young people but many also offer help as and when they can. 

Wokingham Scouts has survived the last century thanks to the dedication of its leaders and helpers.  In order for it to survive another century we need new and continued support.  Scouting does change with the times in order to keep the young people interested and this we do quite well in Wokingham.

For adults in Scouting it is not all one sided: adults, helpers and parents can also get something out of Scouting,  there are many social aspects, new challenges, new skills to be learnt, having a go at activities you never thought you would, the list goes on.  Often the leadership skills learnt through Scouting can greatly benefit adults in their careers.

 If you would like to help but are too busy to make a regular commitment, have a look at the How to Help page and there is also the Scout Fellowship who offer support on a regular basis as well as arranging much needed social events for Scouters across Wokingham.

 For those who are looking for a place in Scouting for their young person, have a look on the Groups page. 

 If you are interested in getting something out of scouting for yourself please contact us at info@wokinghamscouts.org.uk or you can leave a message on this number 07092 807 586.

Happy Scouting,

Andy McBain
