Harrogate Explorer Scouts set to launch

In response to growing demand for adventure, fun, and life skills among the youth in Harrogate, a brand-new Explorer Scout Unit is about to take off!

The Harrogate Explorer Scout Unit, an exciting addition to the local Scouting community, will offer young people aged 14 to 18 the opportunity to embark on thrilling adventures, build essential skills, and create lasting memories—all with the support of dedicated volunteers and the community.

The official launch of the Harrogate Explorer Scout Unit will take place on Tuesday, January 14th, at St. Paul’s URC Church Hall, Victoria Avenue, Harrogate, HG1 5PR. The unit will meet on a Tuesday evening, providing a dynamic space for youth to grow, explore, and thrive.

Chief Scout Dwayne Fields praises the volunteers who supported his journey in Scouting as a young person. “My volunteer leaders believed in me as a young person and taught me to believe in myself. They showed me I could do anything I put my mind to, and others would help me along the way.”
