Buying Uniform

So your child wants to join us... they'll need a uniform! :-)

One of the best places to get uniform is online, but kids grow so quickly it's crazy!

We normally suggest getting them a size larger than what they need, that way it will last the section they are in.

Beaver Scouts

• Beaver Scout Sweatshirt : https://shop.scouts.org.uk/uniforms/beavers/beavers-tipped-sweatshirt
• Youth Activity Trousers : https://shop.scouts.org.uk/casual-clothing/youth-s-scout-activity-trousers

They can of course wear their school trousers, but i think you'll agree, activity trousers look nicer for scouting and they won't knacker their school trousers!

Cub Scouts

• Cub Scout Polo Top : https://shop.scouts.org.uk/uniforms/cubs/cubs-tipped-polo-shirt
• Cub Scout Sweatshirt : https://shop.scouts.org.uk/uniforms/cubs/cubs-tipped-sweatshirt
• Youth Activity Trousers : https://shop.scouts.org.uk/casual-clothing/youth-s-scout-activity-trousers
• Girls may wear skirts, they must be knee length and either plain navy blue or black.
• Black shoes : standard smart shoes, that they wear to school. NO trainers.
• Black socks (girls may wear white)

They can of course wear their school trousers, but i think you'll agree, activity trousers look nicer for scouting and they won't knacker their school trousers!

Scouts

Scout uniform is much more formal then Beavers or Cubs, this is because we are preparing them for joining secondary school, and thinking further on in life about how much their personal appearance can affect peoples impressions of them... would you employ someone who turns up to an interview wearing a hoodie?
