Being a Beaver
Beavers is the second Scout Section, for children aged 6-8. As a Beaver, you’ll get the chance to try a range of exciting activities and go on new adventures. Here’s everything you need to know.
What do Beavers do?
Working together Beavers take part in a range of activities that help them develop their skills and learn something new. Whether it’s exploring the local community or going on a Beaver sleepover with friends, fun is at the heart of the Beaver programme.
Earning Awards
By taking part in activities Beavers will earn badges that they can proudly wear on their uniform. Completing all the challenge badges will earn Beavers the Chief Scout’s Bronze Award.
Beaver Promise
As a values based movement we all make the ‘The Promise’ an oath that helps us to be our best.
Uniform and badge placement
After you join Beavers you will wear a uniform that lets you display all of your badges. Learn about our uniform and where to put your badges below.
Moving on to Cubs
Eventually, it will be time to say goodbye to Beavers and move onwards and upwards to Cubs.

All our leaders are trained volunteers who give their time to help run weekly sessions and extra activities. Interested in learning how you can support your local Beaver Colony? Click the link below to explore the range of ways that you can support Scouting.
