Welcome to Bottesford Scouts

Welcome to Bottesford Scout Group's website. The group was established over 100 years ago, and has seen many changes over that time, but the core values of learning new skills, making friends and having amazing adventures, remain the same.

Our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts enjoy a varied programme of adventurous activities in a safe and fun environment. We believe in helping our young people fulfil their potential by working in teams, learning by doing and thinking for themselves.

Our Group has two Beaver Colonies (for 6–8 year olds), a Cub Pack (for 8–10½ year olds), and a Scout Troop (for 10½–14 year olds). Some people think Scouts is just for boys – it's not – we have loads of girls too!
