Venturer Scouts is for males and females aged 14 to 18 who never turn down a good challenge and love to push themselves to their limits.

Life as a Venturer scout
Venturer Scouts never turn down a challenge, in fact, they make their own! Scaling a 30m rock-face or abseiling into caves may frighten most people but Venturer Scouts face the challenge head on and then go white water kayaking! As a Venturer Scout you will work in Units with other Venturer Scouts and your Adult Leaders are always available to provide you with advice, encouragement, and support. As a Venturer Scout you are given the freedom to choose your own activities, depending on your interests, because we know that you are most motivated to achieve when you’re passionate about what you do.

Venturer scouts Meetings
Venturer Scout Units meet on a regular basis and Venturer Leaders are simply there to provide adult leadership and support; they act as your Scouting mentors. Unit progress is discussed at meetings, along with how each Unit is turning their goals of the Venturer Program into reality. Socialising is a must, and strong bonds are formed through teamwork and a common desire to ensure that everyone becomes the best person they can be. If you are a Venturer Scout your only limits are the ones that you set for yourself.
