About Us
Welcome to the 1st Market Bosworth Scout Group. Our group has been in existence for since 1955 and is based in the heart of the Market Bosworth in beautiful Leicestershire.
We can be found at the Scout Headquarters, Southfield Way, Market Bosworth, CV13 0JY . We draw members in from villages around a ten mile radius and beyond. We hope you have great fun and find friendship with us.
Our Sections
The Group currently consists of three sections and meets:
Beavers – 6 to 8 years old, meet Wednesdays.
Cubs – 8 to 10 ½ years old, meet Mondays or Fridays.
Scouts – 10 ½ to 14 years old, meet Mondays.
With all sections there is some flexibility in age ranges.
The Group feeds into a District Explorer Scout Unit (14-18 years old), however all group members that progress to the District Explorer Unit are more than welcome back at the Group as “Young Leaders” with any of the sections.
The Group can always benefit from assistance either as a Leader, helper or a member of the Trustee Board or even as occasional specialist skills instructor, passing on skills or hobbies. If you would like to help, in any capacity, please contact us.
Whilst the activities they take part in will depend on their age, each Section gives young people the opportunity to learn by doing. The main programme areas are:
- Outdoor and Adventure
- Global
- Community
- Fit for Life
- Creative and Beliefs
- Attitudes
Leaders are trained to deliver this programme, ensuring our young people stay safe while they enjoy themselves and learn.
