Scouts are do-ers…and give-it-a-go-ers.
We question and listen and form wide open minds. We take a deep breath and speak up.
We think on our feet. See the big picture. Ignore the butterflies and go for it.
We get back up and try again. We think about what’s next, and plan for it. We jump in, get muddy, give back and get set.
We’re Scouts and everyone’s welcome here. All genders, races and backgrounds. Every week we give almost half a million 6-25 year olds the skills they need for school, college, university, the job interview, the important speech, the tricky challenge and the big dreams: the skills they need for life.
Sounds fun? Worthwhile? It is. But don’t just take our word for it. Take theirs.
We are Tynemouth Scouts…
Tynemouth Scouts cover a large part of North Tyneside with groups located in Tynemouth, North Shields, Meadow Well, Wallsend, Battle Hill and Howdon.
There are currently over 800 youth members supported by over 300 adults.
As Scouts, we believe in preparing young people with skills for life. We encourage our young people to do more, learn more and be more.
Each week, we give 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 part of a worldwide movement, creating stronger communities and inspiring positive futures.
By 2025 we will have prepared more young people with skills for life, supported by amazing leaders delivering an inspiring programme. We will be growing, more inclusive, shaped by young people and making a bigger impact in our communities.
We are proud to say we are a values-based movement. Our Scout values of integrity, respect, care, belief and cooperation guide everything we do.
