Established in 1917, the Group is one of the largest independent Scout Groups in our District and is based on The Paddock, off Brookfield Road, Cheadle SK8 1EX. The Group consists of two Beaver Scout colonies; two Cub Scout packs a Scout troop and our Discovery Explorer Scout Unit.
2nd Cheadle Scout Group is part of the UK's biggest mixed youth organisation. We change lives by offering 6 to 25-year-olds fun and challenging activities, unique experiences, everyday adventure and the chance to help others so that we make a positive impact in communities. Scouting helps children and young adults reach their full potential by develop skills including teamwork, time management, leadership, initiative, planning, communication, self-motivation, cultural awareness and commitment. We help young people to get jobs, save lives and even change the world. Members take part in activities as diverse as kayaking, abseiling, expeditions overseas, photography, climbing and zorbing. They can learn survival skills, first aid, computer programming, or even how to fly a plane. It’s a great way to have fun, make friends, get outdoors, express your creativity and experience the wider world. All sections have a waiting list so if your child would like to join, please register your interest at http://2ndcheadlescoutgroup.co.uk/contact-us/
Want to volunteer as an Adult leader? This everyday adventure is possible thanks to our adult volunteers, who support Scouts in a wide range of roles from working directly with young people, to helping manage a Group, to being a charity Trustee. We help volunteers get the most out of their experiences at Scouts by providing opportunities for adventure, training, fun and friendship. Our award-winning training scheme for volunteers means that adults get as much from Scouts as young people. Our approach focuses on what you want to get out of volunteering with Scouts, while respecting how much time you can offer. Over 90% of Scout volunteers say that their skills and experiences have been useful in their work or personal life. Email [email protected] for volunteering positions available.
