Welcome to 1st Hatch End Scout Group
Our Group is situated in the village of Hatch End in the London Borough of Harrow, which is at the edge of the Green Belt in the suburbs of Northwest London. We are a thriving Group originally founded in October 1922 – one of the oldest Scout Groups in the area and are part of Harrow District.
We have a Squirrel Drey, for young people between the ages of 4 and 6 years, a Beaver Colony for those aged from 6 to 8 years, a Cub Pack for those aged from 8 to 10 ½ years, a Scout Troop for those aged 10 ½ to 14 years old, and an Explorer Unit to cater for our older Scouts over 14.
All Sections are open to both boys and girls, and we have a team of enthusiastic Leaders, Young Leaders and numerous helpers to guide them. We provide a full range of activities for the young members of the Group and have a long tradition of commitment to the youth in our community – helping our youngsters strive to new heights, experience new challenges and most importantly of all, to have fun. Scouting is all about meeting new people, making new friends and learning skills for life.
The Sections meeting are held weekly during school term time:
- Squirrels (age 4-6) – Mondays 6.00 – 7.00 pm
- Beavers (age 6-8) –Thursdays 6.15 – 7.30 pm
- Cubs (age 8-10) – Wednesdays 6.30 – 8.00 pm
- Scouts (age 10-14) – Fridays 7.15 – 9.00 pm
- Explorers (Axolotl) (age 14-18) – Fridays 7.30 – 9.30 pm

We have waiting lists for all Sections. All parents are expected to help from time to time. Scouting is run as an entirely voluntary organisation and only exists because of the commitment of the Leaders, parent helpers and Trustees Board. We need parental involvement and are always looking for new members to join our team. If you would like to get involved, please email us from the contacts page. All Leaders’ children automatically get a place.
