Squirrels

Scout Association Launches Squirrels

We’re starting a new provision for four and five 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.

Benefits of joining Squirrels

Squirrels is a completely new section for 4–5 year olds. There are plenty of reasons to get stuck in, as Squirrels gives young people the chance to:

  • Make friends

  • Have fun outdoors

  • Learn new things

  • Earn badges through fun activities

This new programme is currently open in 200 areas, but not 1st Ramsey - yet, with Squirrels Dreys launching soon.

Squirrels will achieve anything they set their minds to, and having lots of fun along the way.

The one hour sessions will be a brilliant opportunity for young peoples’ first step into Scouting and preparing them for school years.

Outdoors activities, fun, games, badges and so much more, Squirrels is the opportunity for young people to learn skills for life. Supported by amazing leaders delivering an inspiring programme.
