1st Clevedon Scouts – Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs & Scouts

About Us

Welcome to the new look 1st Clevedon Scouts website. We welcome over 100 young people spread across Scouts, Cubs, Beavers and our new Squirrels for our littlies, all of which regularly attend our programme of traditional scouting activities. We proudly deliver Scouting for all genders, races and backgrounds, and regardless of your young person’s physical ability – there’s a Scout adventure out there waiting for them. And we’ll help them find it.

Scouting goes far beyond being a progressive programme of activities designed to help the young develop holistically. It provides a foundation for great values to live by: helpfulness, friendship, cooperation; respect for self and for others; understanding and tolerance; integrity based on loyalty, honesty and trust; leadership, resourcefulness and courage in the face of difficulties.

We are a registered charity (registration number: 308315) and are run by a team of incredibly dedicated and quite frankly inspirational volunteers – without them we would not exist – they make everything happen! Please contact us if you’d like to get involved and become part of this team – it’s a great way for you to make friends for life as well.

#SkillsForLife

#SkillsForLife – Our plan is to build on the success of our previous plan: to continue to grow, become more inclusive, to be shaped by young people and to make a bigger impact in our communities.

History

The scout movement was launched in Clevedon on November 6, 1909, and met in the YMCA building in Marson Road. A year later Sir Edmund Elton offered a site, now B&M car park, for a Clevedon and Walton Bay Scout headquarters and provided a scout hut, which was built by Coles builders. This hut was used until 1986 when the land was sold and a new scout hut was built next to the football club off Southey Road. If you’re eagle-eyed then you can still find a plaque marking the old location of the scout hut in the area.
