Squirrels

We have started a new provision for four and five year olds called Squirrels, to help young people gain skills for life at a time when it matters most and where it's most needed.

Being a Squirrel

When you join Squirrels, you’ll be introduced to lots of new activities, people and things. Here's everything you need to know.

Awards

Completing awards challenges you to do more, learn more and be more. See what’s on offer and start your journey to the top.

Activity Badges

Become an expert in something you love, or try something shiny and new. There’s a badge to suit each and every Squirrel.

Squirrel Leaders

All of our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe and open to all. Some lead the Drey week in and week out. Others visit occasionally to help run a session or drop in to share their skills. No matter how much time you have to spare, find out about volunteering on your own terms.
