Scouting is for girls as well as boys. |
|
|
 |
|
| |
Girls and young
women make up almost 10 per cent of the Movement in the UK
constituting one of our biggest development areas. We are
pleased to tell people that we are the country's largest mixed
organisation for young people. And in Enfield, we have loads of opportunities for girls and young
women to enjoy Scouting.

Scouting is a global
movement. |
|
| |
 |
|
|
| |
|
Scouting is active in more than 216 countries
and territories with more than 28 million members worldwide. In
our part of London we have nearly 1000 members, speaking 35
different languages! |

Young people can join at
any stage of their development. |
|

|
If you are aged between 6 and 25, then you
can start Scouting almost immediately. You do not have to have
been a Cub to be a Scout. We welcome late starters! And if
you want to be a Leader or even just help occasionally, you
don't have to have been in the Scouts when you were little! |

Scouting is for people of
all faiths |
|
|
 |

|
Some people think that Scouting is a
Christian organisation. It isn't. We welcome everyone who is
willing and able to make the Scout Promise. Enfield Scouts come from Christian, Hindu, Jewish,
Muslim and Sikh families

Scouting is great value! |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
Scouting membership represents outstanding
value. With activities including abseiling, canoeing, archery,
camping, caving, climbing and karting, there are few other
organisations who can offer so much for so little. And in
inner city London, we don't believe that any club or society
matches the range of activities our young people get a chance to
undertake. |

Robert Baden Powell, the
Founder of Scouting was recently voted the 13th most influential
person of the 20th Century. |

Famous former Scouts
include Paul McCartney, Billy Connolly, Stephen Spielberg and
David Beckham. |

|
Scouts go on to excel in the worlds of
business, sport, entertainment and the media. Our fun, flexible
programme helps young people develop team skills, leadership
qualities and lasting friendships. We believe in supporting
tomorrow's leaders today. We've certainly got the Capital's
future actors, politicians and explorers in our District right
now. You only have to listen to them at weekly meetings to
discover that! |

Each day 100,000 people in
the UK take part in Scouting activities. |

That's more than what Tottenham Hotspurs can hold!
Quite a lot more, actually! |

Scouting for Boys,
Baden-Powell's blueprint for the Scout Movement is one of the
most popular books of all time. |
|
| |
 |
|
|
| |
|
B.-P's famous 1908 book became the publishing
phenomenon of the 20th century, enjoying worldwide sales second
only to the Bible. The title was recently re-issued by Oxford
University Press with a new introduction by Professor Elleke
Boehmer. |

Scouting will be 100 in
2007 |
|
| |
 |
|
|
| |
|
The centenary of Scouting will be celebrated
all over the world, culminating in 21st World Jamboree at
Hylands Park, Chelmsford Essex. The event will involve more
young people from more countries than the Olympic Games. |
