Beavers

Welcome to Beavers at the 4th Poplar Scouts!

Thinking about Beavers for your child? It's a fantastic first adventure into the world of Scouting for 6 & 7 year olds!

Who are we?

Beavers is all about fun, friendship, and trying new things. It's a brilliant way for them to develop confidence and learn skills that will help them throughout their lives – and they'll have a great time doing it!

At Beavers, they'll get involved in a huge range of activities. From playing games and making crafts to exploring the outdoors and going on trips, there's always something exciting happening. They might build dens, learn about nature, try some simple cooking (with plenty of support!), or discover different cultures.

What makes Beavers so special?

• • It's full of fun:
    We make sure every meeting is packed with exciting activities that they'll want to keep coming back for more of.

  • It's a great place to make friends:
    They'll meet other children from the local area and build lasting friendships.

  • They'll be earning badges:
    Their left arm will fill with trophies from all the adventures that you've had.

  • They'll learn skills for life:
    They'll develop teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and other essential skills, all while having fun.

  • They'll explore the outdoors:
    You'll be amazed at how easy it is to get outside and earn the My Outdoors Challenge badge (even living in Zone 2!)

Are you a parent, carer, or someone who simply wants to make a difference in your community? 

We're always looking for enthusiastic adults (and Young Leaders aged 14-18) to join our Beavers Section team.

Volunteering with Beavers is a rewarding experience:

• • Make a real difference:
    You'll help shape the lives of young people, giving them the skills and confidence they need to succeed.

  • Have fun and make new friends:
    You'll join a friendly and supportive team of adults who share your passion for helping others.

  • Develop your own skills:
    You'll gain valuable experience in leadership, teamwork, communication, and more.

  • Give back to your community:
    You'll be making a positive contribution to the local area.

Whether you can offer a few hours a week or more, we'd love to hear from you. 

No prior experience is necessary – we provide full training and support.
