Venture Scouts

Venture Scouts range from 15 to 17 years of age. On completing the Venture Section each Venture is given a choice of becoming a Rover or a Leader. The programme involves a wide variety of exciting and adventurous activities, where the Venture Scouts themselves are responsible for designing, planning and implementing their activities. Activities can include Ventact, Mountain Moot, climbing mountains, fundrasing, helping younger sections of the group and of course Summer Camp, the programme is limited only by our ventures own imagination.

In Venture Scouts the young person takes full ownership of the programme, and they decide what they will do, when they will do it and how it will be done. In doing this they are supported and advised by a dedicated team of Venture Leaders, whose role is to guide and mentor the Venture Scouts as they develop their skills in planning and organisation.

Venture Scouts work in small sub-groups called Crews which come together to plan and organise specific activities. Some of these activities will involve all of our scout group and some will involve only Venture Scouts with similar interests. One Crew might take on the Four Peaks Challenge while another Crew might want to put on a stage show. The Crew system allows for a wide variety of interests to be explored.
