19th Durham Scouts & Nevilles Cross Explorers 19th Durham Scouts | Neville’s Cross

We are a local scout group based in Neville’s Cross, Durham. John’s Church in Neville’s Cross.

19th Durham Scout Group is now a thriving group with Beaver, Cub and Scout sections that meet regularly at the Nelson Hall Scout Hut, set in a green area behind St. The 19th Durham Scout Group opened in January 2006 following the merger of the 1st Durham Scout Group and the 9th Durham Scout Group. This helped both groups: the 9th Durham group had a building but no Cub or Beaver sections and declining Scout numbers, while the 1st Durham group had good Beaver numbers, but no building of its own.

Last night explorers attempted to complete the river crossing challenge. Inspired by our scouts, but they were determined to take it a step further.

Last night Cubs had an amazing Forest Adventure at Broom House Farm. Here are some of the highlights.

An absolutely fantastic effort by all those involved today at the scout hut.

A massive thank you to all the families which volunteered and gave time on their Saturday to help us get things cleaned, tidied, painted, straightened, organised, thrown away, de-weeded plus more…

The day was a great success and really do appreciate the efforts.

Today is the day! We're getting the Scout Hut ready for a summer of activities - leaders, trustees, parents and friends are joining forces to mow, paint, dig, clean and tidy.

We're here 10am-3pm. If you haven't signed up, we'd still love for you to come along. We'll provide the direction, tools, and as much tea and coffee as you can drink. You provide the enthusiasm for a job well done!

Last night scouts had their annual river crossing challenge. Using ropes and carabiners, they were tasked with making a crossing to get their team from one side to the other - “without getting wet”.

The challenge seemed to get lost in translation though.

Roughly translated into, “who can get the wettest while getting from one side to the other”.
