About us
Located just a few minutes from Edgware Station, we’ve been running Scouts here since 1929! We’re all about outdoor adventure, skills for life, and social activities. Check out our 2024 video for a look at what we do…
In search of volunteer leaders…
We’re re-opening our Beavers and Cubs sections! We have spaces for 6 – 10 year olds – and spaces for adult volunteers just like you! It’s flexible, lots of fun, and a great way to brighten up your weekly routine.
Our latest news
Celebrating our Young Leaders
When leaving our Scouts section at 14, Luca and Margarita decided to stay with us and take on the Young Leaders’ Scheme. Over the past three years they have been volunteering with a younger section, where they have grown their leadership skills by running their own games, activities and badges – well done both on completing the YL Scheme!
Celebrating 95 Years!
Last night we invited families of the Troop to join us to celebrate our 95th anniversary. There was a delicious cake, Kevin from the District came to present some top awards, a special video montage of archive photos and a Promise Renewal to dedicate our new troop flag.
Scouts take on Scarefest!
For this term’s camp we joined forces with 2nd Welwyn Scouts to join Scarefest! Gilwell Park organised a spooky range of activities for the weekend, with fair rides, horror mazes, pumpkin carving and an epic fireworks display. There were also the usual site activities, including axe throwing, fire lighting, go-karting and high ropes.
A week in Ashdown Forest
Last week we ventured into East Sussex for this years summer camp. We found Winnie the Pooh, watched the Red Arrows, had many campfires under the stars and made lots of new friends along the way. Time for some rest now!
Cubs try their hand at gardening
As part of their Gardeners badge, this term the Cubs have helped upgrade our Scout Garden. As well as planting some new shrubs along the fence, they’ve also built a bug hotel – we’ll have to check in over the summer and see how many guests it has!
Narrowboat 2024
Last week the scouts embarked on our four-day floating Narrowboat Camp! From Daventry to Royal Leamington Spa (and back), scouts were involved in every aspect of this camp from cooking meals and operating the locks, to steering the boat & its maintenance. They were an excellent crew! I know Roni can’t wait do it all again next time…
Scouts Go karting
After their fundraising efforts last year, we asked the Scouts how they would like to spend the money they raised – and go karting was top of their list! We made an afternoon trip of it in Watford, and even got medals to match our scarf colours.
2nd Edgware at the State Opening of Parliament
We’re proud to have had two of our Young Leaders assisting with the State Opening of Parliament! As well as greeting guests at the Peers Entrance, and directing them through the House of Lords, they also created a formation to greet HM The King. Well done Charlie, Luca and others from Greater London North Scouts!
