Volunteering is like a mental high-five! Not only do you get warm fuzzies from shaping young minds, but you might just uncover a whole new you in the process. Joining the Scouts is your ticket to: making new friends, diving headfirst into new challenges, soaking up the great outdoors, sprinkling positivity in your area, paving the way for the next generation, and crafting memories that'll outlast the dinosaurs. Don't fret if you can only pop in occasionally – whether you're a master planner, a tea brewing pro, or a crafting wizard, every bit of your time is pure gold to us!

Team Great Wyrley Scouts
We're a spirited bunch of volunteers who thrive on sharing our scouting wisdom and good-natured ribbing. We're a scouting family, through and through. And we're not just here to watch - we dive into the fun, too!
We're proud custodians of an amazing building and outdoor area, complete with all the nitty-gritty tasks and paperwork that come with it. We're on a mission to expand our group and welcome more young adventurers into the fold! It's more than just the scouting nights, it's the behind-the-scenes magic that makes it all possible!

Support our Sections!
Could you help us open a new section?
Ages 4-6 Years
We're nuts about the idea of starting a squirrel section! We just need a head honcho and a bunch of sidekicks. Once we've got our team assembled, it's as easy as acorns: a bit of training, some first aid, a DBS check, and we'll be scampering off on our mission!
Tell me more!
The Scout association has started opening a new provision for four to six year olds called Squirrels, to help young people gain skills for life at a time when it matters most and where it's most needed.
