Scouts helps over 460,000 young people in the UK develop the skills they need to succeed in life. Internationally, there are over 30 million young people enjoying the benefits of Scouting. We believe that young people develop most when they are 'learning by doing,' when they are given responsibility, work in teams, take acceptable risks and think for themselves. We also offer adventure to adults, and there is wide variety of roles and opportunities available to those who want to get involved. Our Chief Scout is Bear Grylls: 'Two things matter in life: following your dreams and looking after your friends. This is what I love about Scouting. It’s about doing great things, loving and enjoying the great adventures and helping others to do the same.'

We're for girls, with girls, by girls. We're Girlguiding. How will your story start?

Scouting delivers fun, challenge and adventure right across Scotland every day of the week. We are Scotland’s biggest, and best known, voluntary youth organisation. We work with nearly 40,000 young people (6-25), both boys and girls, to provide active programmes that see them develop through challenge teamwork and leadership skills. More than 7,500 adults already volunteer their time to Scouting, mostly at a local level. Scouts Scotland Headquarters supports activities run locally by volunteers to provide a balanced programme of adventurous and other activities to children and young people.
