Company info

ScoutsCymru is the organisation supporting Scout Groups across Wales as part of The UK Scout Association. We have 14,000 youth members in Wales, supported by 3,500 volunteers across 302 Groups

ScoutsCymru changes lives by offering 6- to 25 year olds fun, challenging activities, unique experiences, everyday adventure and the chance to help others so that we make a positive impact in communities. Scouting can be as diverse as kayaking, abseiling, expeditions overseas, photography, climbing and zorbing. There’s something for every young person. It’s a great way to have fun, make friends, get outdoors, express creativity and experience the wider world.

This everyday adventure is possible thanks to our adult volunteers, who support Scouts in a wide range of roles from working directly with young people, by helping to manage a Group or by being a charity Trustee.
