Beavers

Beavers Scouts are boys and girls aged between 6 and 8 years.

Young people can join Beaver Scouts in the three months leading up to their sixth birthday.

Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on visits and helping others. Beavers are all about having fun, making friends, and learning new skills. They meet weekly to try out a huge range of activities, which might include science experiments, crafts, den building, and more. They also go on day trips, sleepovers, and camps, giving many Beavers a real adventure - sometimes their first night away from home!

Beavers work as a team to help other people, in their local communities and beyond. Whether they're changing the whole world or helping a friend take the leap to try something new on a rainy weekday evening, they always lend a hand.

As part of their participation in weekly activities and camps, Beavers achieve challenge and activity badges, so it is important that they attend regularly. The highest award in the Beaver Section is the Chief Scout's Bronze Award. This can be transferred onto the Cub uniform and worn until the Chief Scout's Silver Award is achieved.
