Welcome to 4th Ashby Scout Group

We’ve been preparing young people with skills for life in Ashby and the local area for nearly 50 years. Are you ready to join the adventure?

Who are we?

With members from Ashby, Donisthorpe, Oakthorpe, Packington, Smisby, Blackfordby and Moira, we're a friendly group that welcomes all. We encourage our young people to do more, learn more and be more. Scouts prepares young people with skills for life – helping them speak up and play their part. Each week we give almost half a million people aged 6-25 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. 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. #SkillsForLife
