Scouting Sections

Scouting has an exciting programme for young people aged between the 6 to 25 years old. These Scouting Section pages explain more about each section, including details of what each section does, how old you need to be to join a section and some information about what badges you can achieve in each section. You can also read what real members in GLSE think of Scouting.
