Bringing Scouting to Clovenstone and Wester Hailes
Every young person deserves the chance to discover what they’re capable of. The chance to learn new skills, build real friendships, and find their place in something bigger than themselves. That’s what Scouting has always been about.
But right now, the communities of Clovenstone and Wester Hailes don’t have a Scout Group of their own. We want to change that — and we need your help to do it.
Something is already taking shape
We’ve been working with Clovenstone Primary School to lay the groundwork for something new: Squirrels and Beavers sections that would give local children the chance to experience Scouting close to home, in their own community.
The response has been wonderful. Following activity sessions and promotional work at the school, families in the area have shown real enthusiasm for what Scouting can offer their children. The interest is there. Now we need the people to make it happen.
Could you be part of this?
We’re looking for adult volunteers to join the team and help build this new provision from the ground up. You don’t need previous Scouting experience, and you don’t need to commit to every single week — whatever time you can offer makes a real difference.
If you’re someone who’d love to help lead and shape something genuinely new for your community, we’d especially love to hear from you.
