Join Beavers, Cubs or Scouts

Scouting is an inclusive, values based movement and membership is open to all those who share our fundamental values. 

Please see the main scouting website for more information on inclusive scouting, which is open to all genders.

Age ranges:

  • Beavers: 6 – 8  (but they can join from 5¾)
  • Cubs: 8 – 10½ 
  • Scouts:  10½ – 14

We are a popular and busy group, and waiting lists are quite long, but you will get a phone call once your child is offered a place – so it is important to provide accurate information. Please also try to let us know if you no longer require your place on the list.

Thinking of joining? Lets chat

Fill in the details below and we’ll give you a call back within a day or so to answer any questions you might have.

We don’t post our phone number publicly to avoid our volunteers getting nuisance calls – sorry!



    The personal data collected as part of this form will only be used for the purpose of arranging and responding to your request for a call back. Your data will not be shared with any third parties and you will not be signed up to any marketing emails.

    Don’t forget, there are loads of other Scout Groups in Cheltenham which may have some spaces available now.
