Explorers are a go-getting group of young people aged 14 to 18. Together, they make up the fourth section of the Scouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Week in and week out, they gather in groups called Units to try new things, make new friends and conquer the small task of changing the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being an Explorer is all about discovering the world on your own terms and making the most of what you have, wherever and whoever you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside your new friends, you\u2019ll master the skills that will make you feel stronger and happier in the long run, and try things you\u2019d never get the chance to do at home or at school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re hiking to faraway lands or building a robot in your local town hall, you\u2019ll have the freedom to choose what you\u2019d like to do, and work together with adults to make it happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get in touch with our local Explorer Units, please use our general contact<\/a> form to ask to be put in touch with them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re completely new to Scouts or have been with us since you were 5 years old, joining is a great way to meet new people, seek out new challenges and see the world. Because being a grown up shouldn\u2019t mean you have to miss out on all the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Scout Network connects 20,000 18-25 year olds across the UK, and gives them the opportunity to take part in a huge range of exciting projects and events centred on the themes of \u2018Adventure\u2019, \u2018Community\u2019 and \u2018International\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re organising a local meet-up or a once in a lifetime trip to the Amazon, it\u2019s all about working together to build new skills, seek out new experiences and make a difference in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Network groups are flexibly run and self-led. Members can create profiles on the Scout Network website, using the platform to meet others with similar goals and share their progress. There are 395 virtual badges currently available to achieve, and members can also work towards a number of Top Awards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get in touch with our local Network, please use our general contact<\/a> form to ask to be put in touch with them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
