1st Henfield Scout Group is an extremely popular and successful group, and it is normal for each of the Beavers, Cubs and Scouts Sections within the group to run at full capacity. As a result, entry numbers to all sections have to be managed to ensure an even spread of age groups within each section, and to avoid creating surges in pack or troop numbers at a later date.
Our Membership Secretary manages the waiting list and movements within the Scout Group. When places become available in any of our Sections, priority will be given to those who have been on the waiting list the longest and places are allocated in the following order of priority:
- Children of leaders and executive committee members with key roles. Our priority is to provide enthusiastic adult leadership in each section enabling us to run a balanced and exciting programme for our young people. We are always recruiting new leaders and therefore offer priority to children of leaders and committee members.
- Members of another Scout Group (Outside of the District) moving in to the Area
- Anyone else on the waiting list
Please be aware that casual conversations with Leaders, or even seemingly formal agreements, regarding getting children on the Group waiting list are not relevant or valid, please complete the form below:
