Joining as a Cub
Cubs are aged 8 to 10½ years old and can be boys or girls. We operate a waiting list as Beaver Scouts transferring to the pack (and the children of our leaders and helpers) always take priority. If you would like to add your name to the list please complete our enquiry form. The form is sent to Glyn Pullen, our Group Scout Leader, who manages the waiting list. Please note that the Cub leaders do not have access to the waiting list and Cub aged joiners from the waiting list and the colony are shared between us and Dauxwood pack (Wednesday night).

Opportunities for adults
It's not just kids stuff. We’ve always got room for extra regular helpers, so if you’d like to take a more active role in our pack just ask. Your skills and new ideas could be just what we need and you might find that you enjoy it too.
Please note that all adults that are in contact with the children in our care have to complete a CRB check. The leaders can tell you more about what this involves or you can contact our Group Scout Leader via the "Contact us" link.

Here are some of the roles that we are looking to fill:

• Occasional helper: We welcome additional help at our pack meetings, particularly those outside when we go to the woods. You do not need to have completed a Scouting CRB check. However, if you think that you might like to help more regularly, or you would like to help with our camps or expeditions then you will need to complete a CRB check.
• Helper at camp: We do a lot of camping in order to deliver our promise of at least one night away a term. We've always got space for extra adult helpers - either putting up or taking down tents, helping with activities or assisting Marian in the kitchen. You don't always have to actually camp with us but you'll be part of the team. All adults at camp need to have a CRB check.
• Pack Assistant: We are looking for keen adults to assist the Cub Scout leaders. We're looking for people who could come along most weeks as it is only by coming regularly that you get to know the way we work and feel part of our leadership team. You don't have to be a Cub Scout parent to be a helper. You would not be expected to wear uniform or to undertake training - although both can be available to you.
• Uniformed Leader: We are looking for keen adults to become Cub Scout leaders. You'd be an energetic person who gets on well with 8 to 11 year olds (and can cope with the noise that they make). We're looking for people who could come along every week and work as part of the leadership team. Your first uniform would be provided by the group once you have been interviewed by the District Appointments Committee. As a warranted leader you make a commitment to undertake training. You don't have to be a Cub Scout parent to become a leader.
