18 - 25 Options
Scouting does not finish at 18, we have an active Network Unit which operates across the district and allows our young adults to continue with the fun activities they enjoyed throughout scouting, whilst also allowing them to become leaders or supporters in their own rights and also allowing them to complete some of the major awards within scouting, such as the Duke of Edinburgh Gold, Kings Scouts Award and Explorer Belt.
​
We understand that new and exciting challenges compete for the time of this age range, so meetings and get togethers are far more flexible, and will tend to meet at weekends to go on an expedition or event.
​
Our Network are great supporters of our younger sections, with some choosing to be full time team leaders and team members, whilst others help on an adhoc basis when home from University or when time permits.
Our young people are our future, we encourage all of our members to reach their full potential
Exciting Events
Our Network have arranged a number of trips and excursions over the recent past, from Campfire get togethers, kayaking down the River Trent, a hiking weekend and Youth Hostelling in Derbyshire, to entering a team into the London Monopoly Run
