Welcome to…

11th Folkestone Scouts

Our Group is a popular Group in the heart of East Folkestone, providing every day adventure for young people aged 6 to 18 and beyond. We’re based in our purpose built HQ, with easy access to the wild sea front and equally easy access to the delights and adventures afforded to us by the North Downs.

Our Group is very active – take a look around our site to find out what we’re up to – supported by a dedicated and experienced team of volunteer leaders and supporters who make it all possible week in, week out.

Adult volunteers…

The Scout Association award-winning training scheme for volunteers means that adults get as much from Scouts as young people.
