There are also opportunities to explore their beliefs and attitudes.Being outdoors is really important and Scouts love to learn new skills, such as camping, survival and cooking as well as the wide range of adventurous activities, anything from abseiling to yachting.Scouting is about being with friends, as part of a team, participating fully in the adventure and opportunities of life.
