Skills for Life

Scouts prepares young people with skills for life – helping them speak up and play their part. Each week we give almost half a million people aged 4-25 the skills they need for school, college, university, the job interview, the important speech, the tricky challenge and the big dreams: the skills they need for life.

Welcome to Halifax District

We believe in bringing people together. We celebrate diversity and stand against intolerance, always. We’re part of a worldwide movement, creating stronger communities and inspiring positive futures.

We have eight Scout Groups around the Halifax area in addition to Explorer and Network provision.
