1st Bishop's Stortford and Hockerill Scout Group
Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts and Scouts for boys and girls aged 6-14
Children are usually invited to join the relevant Section the term after their qualifying birthday. However, as we are a popular Group we currently have a long waiting list for places. If you would like your child added to the list, please contact our Waiting List Co-ordinator Christine Leach via email christine.leach@1stbishopsstortford.org.uk. You will then be contacted once a place becomes available.
We currently have three Beaver Scout
Colonies, three
Cub Scout Packs and
three Scout Troops,
based at our Scout Headquarters, off Heath Row in Bishops
Stortford, details of which can be seen opposite.
There is a Membership Fee which is payable each term. The Membership Fee covers the cost of your Membership Pack, Group neck scarf and badges plus contributes to the cost of organising the exciting and challenging programme of activities each term - which is what Scouting is all about!

follows:

Scouting is a uniformed orgainsation and we hope that all our
young members wear their uniform with pride. Each Section's uniform
comprises a sweatshirt/shirt. Group neck scarfs and woggles are
provided by the Group when your child is invested. In addition, you
may choose to purchase a Section polo shirt for warmer weather.
Baseball caps, knitted hats etc are also available.
Uniforms can be purchased in two ways, online by visiting the Scout
Association shop www.scouts.org.uk/shop or by
visiting the local District shop. This is open on Wednesday
evenings between 7pm and 8.30pm at 1st Thorley Group Headquarters,
