The newest branch of the Scouts family tree, where 4-5 year olds can join in too.
This is an age when minds are fizzing, when energy and curiosity levels are sky high, when little lives are full of wow and wonder.
Set them climbing the tree. Who knows how far they’ll reach?
We have Squirrel Drey's setting up across the Region and more planned for the future.
Squirrels might not be open in your community just yet, but you can still register your interest in volunteering with Squirrels now or even supporting setting up a Drey!
Every week, Squirrels will gather in their Dreys to grow and learn their way through lots of different games and activities
Squirrels can achieve anything they set their minds to – and they will have lots of fun along the way.
The sessions will not only be their first step into Scouting but it will help everyone get ready for the adventure of school too.
Each session will be jam packed with outdoor activities, games, laughter, gaining badges and so much more to help your wee ones learn #SkillsForLife.
Will you be our next Squirrels volunteer?
Volunteering’s not just about giving back – the benefits go both ways. All of our activities are run by amazing volunteers.
Volunteering lets you try new things, meet new people, and make a difference.
We know that volunteering is #GoodForYou because when you volunteer, you’ll:
- Do something good for your community and yourself
- Gain skills for the future
- Spend time with your children or gain experience with young people
- Make friends
- Make memories
It doesn’t matter if you want to get involved regularly or help out occasionally – we can find the right fit for you.
