Squirrels

Squirrels is the first section within Scouting, for young people aged between 4 and 6.

When you join Squirrels, you’ll be introduced to loads of new activities, people and things. Every week, Squirrels will gather to grow and learn their way through lots of different games and activities.

Squirrels can achieve anything they set their minds to – and they have lots of fun along the way. The one-hour sessions will be a brilliant opportunity for young people to take their first step into being part of Scouts, and they’ll help everyone get ready for the adventure of school too.

Sessions will be packed with outdoors activities, fun, games, badges, laughter, and so much more to help our youngest members learn the skills they need for life. Of course, none of it would be possible without the support of the amazing leaders who plan and deliver such an inspiring programme. 

Throughout Squirrels, young people work towards their challenges badges, and many achieve the Chief Scout's Acorn Award, the highest award a Squirrel Scout can achieve!

Our district currently has 2 Squirrel Dreys, with 4th Ashby & 10th Scunthorpe. If you have a young person who would like to join Squirrels, click HERE and fill out your details in the form...
