Squirrels are the youngest section of Scouting. 
Open to boys and girls aged 4 and 5, they are all about finding out about the world around them! 
They meet weekly in Dreys.
They have a programme built around games and activities – all driven by an agenda of fun.
Squirrel Dreys are being open in groups where people have volunteered to be Squirrel Leaders.

Being a Squirrel

Every week, Squirrels will gather to grow and learn their way through lots of different games and activities
Squirrels can achieve anything they set their minds to – and they have lots of fun along the way.
The one hour sessions will be a brilliant opportunity for young people to take their first step
into being part of Scouts, and they’ll help everyone get ready for the adventure of school too.
Sessions will be packed with outdoors activities, fun, games, badges, laughter, and so much more
to help our youngest members learn the skills they need for life.  
Of course, none of it would be possible without the support of the amazing leaders who plan
and deliver such an inspiring programme.

Squirrel Leaders

All of our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe and open to all. 
Some lead the Drey 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.
