#SkillsForLife

As Scouts, we believe in preparing young people with skills for life. We bring communities together and contribute to society. Above all, we aim to build better futures.

That’s why we encourage across Basingstoke East, our young people to do more, learn more and be more. Each week, over 900 young people enjoy fun and adventure while developing the skills they need to succeed in life.

As a Scout District we are a registered Charity and therefore adopt an official constitution and have a board of trustees to oversee our governance. Our Scout Council have voted to use the default constitution provided by Scouts HQ.
