FAQ
Who is Scouting for?
Scouting is for boys and girls aged 4 to 18 with different sections based on age. It is also an opportunity for adult volunteers to run activities, teach new skills and make a positive difference to young people’s lives – if you’re a parent, that could be you!
What uniform is required and where do I sew badges?
Uniform requirements and badge placement guidance can be found on the page for the section your young person is in/qualifies for.
Are subs paid all year round?
Yes, we ask that you set up your subs via OSM (Online Scout Manager) as a monthly direct debit. We have worked out the cost of your young person being with us as a yearly amount and spread that across 12 months to make manageable payments.
What do you do with photos of my young person?
We only photograph your young person if you grant permission on OSM (Online Scout Manager). Only Leaders take photos, which are shared on our private Facebook group and saved in our online Shared Area to create leaving certificates. Photos are deleted from Leaders' devices after uploading. We will contact you directly before using any photos for wider promotion.
Do you provide DofE?
Yes, DofE is a core part of our programme. We do everything from Bronze to Gold. But more importantly these D of E’s help toward our Scout Top Awards. These are arguably even better than DofE!!
About Cubs
Our Group runs 2 Cub Packs for boys and girls aged eight until ten and a half, both meet on a Thursday evening and follow the same programme. Gladstone Pack meet from 17:30 – 18:55 and Baden-Powell from 19:05 – 20:30. Camps and weekend activities are attended by Cubs from both Packs.
The Programme
The programme at Cubs is varied and delivered through crafts, practical activities, games and discussion. Emphasis is on fun, teamwork, resilience and adventure. Cubs provide suggestions for the programme and trips.
During 2026, Cubs have found out about the solar system, healthy eating and festivals around the world, learnt some basic first aid and compass skills.
Over the year they have visited the fire station and museum, enjoyed hikes, evenings at local playgrounds and a swimming afternoon. Weekend opportunities have included a camp, a large activity evet with hundreds of Scouts and Guides from around the area, a 2-night stay at an activity centre and a water-sports day.

Uniform and Badges
The uniform consists of a dark green sweatshirt worn with dark grey, navy, or black school bottoms (trousers, shorts, or joggers), or navy Scout activity wear.
This is worn with the black and white Brighton Hill Scout Group necker.
Uniform can be purchased at the Scout Shop (linked in the footer), although we recommend liaising with the section leaders about investiture etc beforehand.
