Mendip scout base offers flexible and well equipped accommodation, and is only a few miles from the Mendip Hills.

It, provides opportunities for a wide range of outdoor scouting activities, including, walking, trail biking, rock climbing and caving in the local area.

Wedmore Scout Group, whose history goes back to the early days of Scouting, is where Scouting happens locally.

No matter what their age, background or experience, young people can join our adventure, make many great friends and have a good deal of fun in the process.

You may feel that you have no skills to offer Scouting - but everyone has something to give.

Doing things such as making squash and organising games means the Leader has more time to spend with the young people.

If you can’t manage this, there is always need for ad-hoc support on  fund-raising events, etc.

Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, and helping others.

As a Beaver Scout you will go outdoor, help others, try new things and have fun! You also get to go on trips and days out.

There are also lots of badges to get, which you can wear on your uniform.

As a Beaver you usually meet with your Beaver friends once a week in a  Colony.

There are loads of fun things that you can do as a Cub Scout.

You will get a chance to try lots of different activities like swimming, music, exploring, computing and collecting. If you do them properly you will get a badge which you can wear on your uniform. Cub Scouts also get to go on trips and days out.

Scouts take part in a wide range of activities as part of their programme, from archery to expeditions.

There are many awards that Scouts can work towards, completing Challenges to get the Chief Scout’s Gold Award.

However, taking part and having fun is just as important as what you achieve as a Scout.

If you're 14 to 18 and want to enjoy Scouting you can do so by joining Explorer Scouting.

As an Explorer Scout you get to take part in all the usual great Scouting activities, as well as work on projects helping to support your local community.

You can also, if you choose,  work with the younger Sections as a Young Leader.
