A message from our DC
Weymouth & Portland Scouts
Scouting offers challenge and adventure to 400,000 young people aged 6 – 25 in the UK.
We believe in helping our Members fulfil their potential by working in teams, learning by doing and thinking for themselves. We’re working to make scouting available to all and we’re passionate about what we do.
Through the adventure of Scouting, 
young people get to take risks in a safe environment,
and have their first taste of responsibility.
We give young people experiences they’ll never forget. The sort of adventure Scouting offers is the chance to experience something different and the opportunity to challenge yourself.
When a Beaver Scout wakes up the morning after a sleepover, or a Cub Scout has just got over a fear of heights by completing their first abseil – that’s adventure.
In Scouting, we provide over 200 activities from abseiling to zorbing, Scouting isn’t about activities for their own sake, we encourage young people to feel the buzz of the challenge and then reflect on what it means. Did they have fun? Do they feel more confident? Would they do it again?
All this is made possible by the efforts of 100,000 voluntary adult leaders. With
award winning training and one–to-
Weymouth & Portland warmly welcomes everyone, young members and adults wishing to join our adventure.
