This section is for adults aged between 18 to 25 where every activity is planned by them. Rovers are able to become Adult Scouters with their Scout Group if they wish. Meetings are planned independently with other Rovers.
Volunteer as a Leader
Adults play an important role in Scouting and we are always looking for some fresh faces to get involved and share ideas. Anyone can become a leader, regardless of previous experience as there is training provided.
