1st Ince and Elton Scout Group

General information

Ince and Elton Scouts became official in 1949. It has been based in Ince, Thornton le Moores and for the past 40plus years in the Scout Hut at School Lane.
The Group as all Scout groups are is self-funding, therefore fundraising is a vital part of scouting life.
The Beavers, Cubs and Scouts are lead by a team of 10 Leaders and three young leaders, who run the weekly sessions and organised fantastic activities and camping trips for our young people. They are supported by a committee of an additional 6 adult volunteers. other parents also get involved from time to time.
The Group has grown significantly over recent years and 2017 saw its 11th year of continuous growth.
We provide a foc Bonfire and Fireworks display to the village annually, with the support of local businesses. We also support the Parish council when we can with activities such as planting.
Currently, we are looking to refurbish the Scout Hut as it is in desperate need of an upgrade and does not do the children justice. We are looking to fundraising, grants and any other assistance from local people to help us with this.
We welcome anyone who would like to be involved, young and old, as fundamentally scouting is FUN!
