113th Glasgow (Burnside)
Scout Group
Age 6 to 8
Each week
We take part in a wide range of activities including games, crafts, singing, visits and good turns, along with plenty of outdoor activities.
Trips and activities
Beavers also take part in the fun and excitement of camps and sleepovers (with mum or dad). It may be the first time they spend a night away from home so it’s a real adventure for them.
What it costs
Scouting is an affordable way of providing a range of exciting and adventurous activities for your child.
In a recent survey, 75% of parents said Scouting provided the best value for money compared to other activities like sports and martial arts groups, youth clubs and drama or music classes.
There's currently an annual fee of only £80 which covers weekly activities. Day trips and camps are charged separately, but are normally subsidised by the scout group.
Uniform
Beavers wear core uniform of a coloured sweatshirt and special group scarf.
The uniform can either be bought using the shop link above, or from the Scout Shop in Elmbank Street. You can also ask the leaders for more information.
We don’t want young people to miss out through financial hardship. If concerns about finances may prevent your child taking part in Scouting or some activities, speak to one of the leaders, as some assistance may be available in confidence.
Where do the badges go?
You can find diagrams of the positions of badges here.

How to join
You can give it a try for a few weeks to see how they like it. Just wear a pair of trainers and some comfortable clothes.
