We have some exciting news! Network is coming back to the Wyre Forest!
With the District currently having the highest number of Explorers ever, now is the perfect time to bring the last youth section back to life. Please can you ensure that you share this news with all your leaders aged 18-25 as we’d love to support them in their scouting journey.
Our first meeting will be at the Viaduct Tavern (DY10 1XL) at 19:30 for a Pub Quiz on Thursday 24th April. (Please bring £1 cash to enter)
Please let us know if you are coming by emailing us using the address below.
If you are a little unsure on what Network involves:
Network is the next adventure after Explorers, for ages 18 to 25, and it is all about what YOU want to get out of your scouting (after all, why should the YPs have all the fun!).
You run your own activities and projects, you’ll work alongside your peers, with guidance from the District Network Team to plan, book and make memories.
That might mean a games night, trips out climbing, activity days, hikes, pub quizzes. You could also organise relaxed camps or volunteering locally helping our community. The possibilities are endless, and Network is what you make of it.
We can also offer support and guidance in achieving your Top Awards (King Scout Award, Explorer Belt, Scout of the World).
There aren't any fixed weekly meetings, meeting places or fixed costs, it's all pay-as-you-go. You could be a regular, or drop in around work or university.
Whether you’re completely new to Scouts or have been all the way through from Beavers, joining Scout Network is a great way to meet new people, seek out new challenges and see the world. You can be part of network and volunteer at the same time, or equally you can stick to just network if you prefer!
So come along and see what we have on offer!
