About Us

Scouting

We believe in preparing young people with skills for life.

Each week, we give over 460,000 young people the opportunity to enjoy fun and adventure while developing the skills they need to succeed, now and in the future. We’re talking about teamwork, leadership and resilience – skills that have helped Scouts become everything from teachers and social workers to astronauts and Olympians.

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

Scouts is local

At 58th Reading Scout Group, we’re proud to offer amazing opportunities to young people. We’ve grown from strength to strength through many generations with our welcoming and friendly environment that we have.

The strength of our Group is built on our team approach where everyone gets involved in a way that works for them. Some people can help out regularly, others dip in from time to time, and some as one-off events. We know that some people love to indulge the big kid inside themselves, and others are more comfortable supporting from behind the scenes – everything is great!
