1st Bishop's Stortford and Hockerill Scout Group
Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts and Scouts for boys and girls aged 6-14
Welcome to the 1st Bishop's Stortford and Hockerill Scout Group.
Founded in 1909, the Group is thriving, with more young members and adult leaders than ever before. In our Centenary year membership reached 200 making us proud to become the second largest Group in Hertfordshire, the largest in the District and one of the top 30 Groups in the UK.
At our Scout Headquarters, off Heath Row in Bishop's Stortford, we currently have three Beaver Scout Colonies, three Cub Scout Packs and three Scout Troops, all of which undertake full and varied programmes of activity throughout the year. For more information on the sections and to help decide which would be right for your child, please click on the links above.
The Group also leases Priory Wood, a 14 acre campsite on the outskirts of Bishops Stortford, which all Sections use on a regular basis for outdoor fun and adventure ranging from orienteering to camp cooking. Please click here for a location map and for more information about hiring the campsite for your own activity.
We are always on the lookout for leaders, assistants and parent helpers. If you think that any of these roles may be of interest to you, please contact Simon Carter simon.carter@1stbishopsstortford.org.uk.
