The beavers section is for boys aged 6 - 8

This is the first and youngest Section in the Scouting family. Young people can join Beaver Scouts in the three months leading up to their sixth birthday. They can move to the next Section, Cub Scouts, between eight and eight years six months.

Easily recognised by their distinctive turquoise sweatshirts, Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on visits and helping others. They meet together once a week in as the Beaver Scout Colony where they do all of the things below.

The 43rd beaver colony is one of the most successful in the woodford area with a full and packed programmes including visits from a Snake to a trip to the local fire station and chip shop! (not at the same time of course). To get involved please see our FAQ.
