Beaver Promise

As a values based movement we all make the ‘The Promise’ an oath that helps us to be our best. There are multiple available promises, both religious and non-religious, and we encourage Beavers to discuss the promises and chose the one that they feel most comfortable with.

Uniform and badge placement

You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them!

Beaver leaders

All of our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe, inclusive and accessible. Some lead the Colony week in and week out. Others visit occasionally to help run a session or drop in to share their skills. No matter how much time you have to spare, find out about volunteering on your own terms.
