The Scout Group has enjoyed steady youth membership and currently provides the opportunity for all boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 14 years to enjoy Scouting in one of it's three youth sections, Beavers, Cubs or Scouts.

 

Young people may join Beavers when they are 6 years old and remain in the section until they are 8.

Young people may join Cubs when they are 8 years old and move up to Scouts when they are 10½.  There are a number of awards and activity badges for the Cubs to achieve.
