Beavers are aged 6-8. Each Beaver Colony consists of a number of 'lodges' - smaller groups where the Beavers learn to work together to complete simple activities and games.
To find your nearest Beaver colony, please see '
who we are'.
The only obligatory uniform item is usually the sweatshirt, but please check with your group. You are welcome to buy other items, such as a polo shirt, baseball cap or activity trousers.
Once your Beaver is ready to make their promise ('be invested') they receive a necker (scarf) and a set of core badges. Each group has its own colour/design of necker.
There is a variety of activity and challenge badges to earn, culminating in the Chief Scout's Bronze award.
