Join us!
Beavers is for children between 6 and 8 years old. Our Beaver Colony meets at 6-7pm on Mondays during term time.
Activities and what you’ll get up to
Get an introduction to outdoor activities, have the opportunity to be creative, explore your local community and experience the excitement of a Beaver Scout sleepover with your friends.
Uniform and badge placement
You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them!
Beaver Promise
The Promise is a simple way to help us celebrate our shared Scout values. There are different versions for our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. This is the Beaver Scout Promise:
“I promise to do my best to be kind and helpful and to…- love our world.” (atheist/no faith)
- act with love towards everyone.” (Buddhist)
- love God.” (Christian)
- love the world.” (Hindu)
- love our world.” (Humanist)
- love God.” (Jewish)
- love Allah.” (Muslim)
- love Wahegru.” (Sikh)
You’ll read this during your investiture. But don’t worry, you don’t need to memorise it!
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.
Moving up to Cubs
Eventually, it’ll be time to say farewell to Beavers and embrace your next big adventure.
Beaver leaders
Our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe, inclusive and accessible. Some lead the Colony 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.
