🟢 We need your help 🟢

Our Squirrel section is at risk of closing unless we can get a few more adults to step forward and help out.

You don’t need any scouting experience at all — just a willingness to help our youngest members have fun, build confidence and learn new skills. A DBS check is required, and all training will be provided, with plenty of support from the existing team.

Even giving a small amount of time can make a huge difference and help keep the section running for the children who love it so much.

If you’ve ever thought “I could help with that” — now really is the time.
Please message us or speak to one of the leaders to find out more 💚

This is Ryan and Luca. Two of our cubs at 1st Wallsend

Both boys have found friendships a bit tricky over the years, and when they first went on camp together as Cubs… well, let’s just say they weren’t each other’s biggest fans 😅. They struggled, they clashed, and it looked like they might spend the whole camp at opposite ends of the field.

But then something brilliant happened.
They sat down, talked it out, and chose to be friends. 💛

From that moment, everything changed.
They’ve encouraged each other, supported each other, and become the kind of friends who cheer each other on without hesitation. Watching them grow together has been nothing short of amazing, and I’m so proud of them both. Luca even managed his first trip down the mine at Beamish today with Ryan's support!

At 1st Wallsend Scouts, this is exactly what we’re all about – giving young people the space, skills, and confidence to build real friendships. Not perfect ones, not instant ones, but honest, resilient, learn-as-you-go friendships that last.

Here’s to Ryan and Luca… and to every young person learning how to be a good friend, one campfire chat at a time. 🔥❤️

We’re so proud of our young people who took part in today’s Remembrance Day parade. They looked fantastic in their uniforms and showed such respect throughout the service. It’s easy to forget that many of them are still very young, but they stood quietly and patiently during a long and meaningful event. They truly did 1st Wallsend Scouts, their families, and our community proud.

🌍 Well done to our amazing young people! 🌍

This afternoon, our Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs, and Scouts spent their time making a real difference by taking part in a litter pick around Wallsend Park and the surrounding community. 🗑️♻️

A huge congratulations to all the young people for their hard work and dedication to keeping our local area clean! 👏🎉

A big thank you to Wallsend Park for loaning us the equipment to help keep everyone safe while they carried out this fantastic community effort. 💚

🏆 Historic Achievement for Our Scout! 🏆

We are incredibly proud to announce that one of our scouts has made group history by becoming the first-ever recipient of the Activity Plus Badge for Martial Arts! 🎉

A huge congratulations to Oliver Baker for earning his black belt in martial arts at Tempest Martial Arts! To achieve this incredible milestone, Oliver had to undergo a grueling two-hour high-intensity test and break through a wooden board to prove his strength, skill, and determination. His dedication and perseverance have truly paid off, and this achievement is a testament to his commitment to both scouting and martial arts.

Well done, Oliver—you are an inspiration to us all! 👏🥋

📣 1st Wallsend Cub Scouts Chip Shop Challenge! 🍟🐟

Back in December, our Cubs took on the exciting task of visiting and judging the best chip shops in Wallsend. After much tasting and deliberation, we’ve finally crowned the winners this evening—and what an incredible competition it’s been!

🏆 Best Customer Service goes to Mr B’s Pizza and Chip Shop for their kindness, patience, and generosity. They made our Cubs feel so welcome and even donated a free bag of chips to the competition—thank you for your amazing community spirit!

🎖️ Overall Winner is Frydays Fish Bar on Station Road, scoring top marks for taste, appearance, portion size, and customer service. Your food and friendly service truly stood out—congratulations!

A huge thank you to all the chip shops that took part in making this such a fun and memorable experience for our Cubs. We’re so lucky to have such fantastic local businesses in Wallsend!

Well done to our winners and to our Cubs for their brilliant judging skills! 👏🍴

🌟🐿️ Well Done, Squirrels! 🐿️🌟

What an amazing evening we’ve had with our Squirrels at Clip ‘n Climb! 🧗‍♂️🧗‍♀️ These little adventurers showed so much bravery, determination, and teamwork as they tackled the climbing walls and pushed themselves to new heights (literally!).

It was incredible to see their confidence grow with each climb and their excitement as they challenged themselves to try something new. Whether it was reaching the top, conquering their nerves, or simply giving it their best shot, every single one of them should be SO proud of what they achieved tonight.

Well done, Squirrels—you’re amazing! 🥳👏
