Skills for Life

Stafford District Scouts is found in the heart of the Midlands. Home to 11 Scout Groups, the District covers the county town of Stafford and surrounding villages, including groups in Penkridge, Hixon, Gnosall and Wheaton Aston.

Welcome to Stafford District Scouts

The Scouts are the UK’s biggest mixed youth organisation. As Scouts, we believe in preparing young people with Skills for Life. We encourage young people to do more, learn more and be more. Each week, we help young people across the County, boys and girls aged 4 to 25 from all cultures and backgrounds to enjoy fun and adventure while developing the skills they need to succeed, now and in the future.

Young People aged 4 to 18 can join and get involved in the adventures! Contact one of our Scout Groups or make an enquiry here to find out more.

Adults can join Scouting too! All our adults are volunteers and are vital for the continued success of the District. Want to get involved? Enquire today.

The District boasts fantastic activities and facilities including the District campsite at Sherratts Wood, the Water Activities Team based at Stafford Boat Club and an indoor climbing wall at Baswich.
