Parents Info Pages

For their first few meetings your child needs nothing at all to try out Scouting. The leader will agree a time when it is suitable for your son or daughter to join officially by making the Promise. For this you will need a uniform.

As your son or daughter takes part in more activities you may want to look at buying some items of equipment. The most frequently needed equipment includes:-
Waterproof jacket and trousers, hiking boots (with ankle support) and sleeping bag. Again, some Groups may have a small supply of these items which can be borrowed if you haven't yet got your own.

Our aim is to make Scouting accessible and affordable to all. The Kit for camp page is not meant as a must have list, but is meant to provide advice as a basic guide for those who are considering buying equipment.

For more detailed information speak to your section leader or email info@darlingtonscouts.org.uk
