We're looking for enthusiastic, community minded volunteers to join the 1st Andover Scouts Team - a brilliant chance to support adventurous, determined young people aged 10 to 14 as they learn new skills, build friendships and have fun.

Whether you're a master of marshmallow toasting, handy in the kitchen, great with social media, or simply someone who turns up with a smile, you already have what it takes. Everyone is welcome, and everyone brings something special. Outdoors, camping, nature, teamwork - our Scouts enjoy it all, and the only thing missing is you.

The 1st Andover Scouts meet on Thursday evenings, with all activities happening in a safe and structured environment.
