In Scouting, we believe that young people develop best when they are “learning by doing”, when they work in teams, are given responsibility, take acceptable risks and think for themselves.
1st Chew Stoke Scout Group was formed in February 2011 and is based in the Chew Valley, south of Bristol.
We currently run Beavers, Cubs and Scouts sections – all are aimed at both girls and boys. See the links below for details about each section, or for other info check out the pages in the “Useful Information” menu.

Beavers is for 6 to 8 year olds, and is the opportunity to make new friends and have new adventures.
Mondays 18:00 – 19:00

Develop new skills and soar to great heights with Cubs, for 8 to 10½ year olds.
Wednesdays 18:15 – 19:30

Scouts is for 10½ to 14 year olds, with new challenges and new adventures.
Tuesdays 19:15 – 20:30

If your young person is interested in joining one of our sections, please contact us here.
Our Scout Group is popular and the sections are over-subscribed, so you may need to join a waiting list. We will be able to advise you of the current situation when you get in touch. Among other criteria, we fill spaces from the waiting list in order of how long the young person has been registered with us, so if you are interested in your young person joining the group in future, we recommend you get in touch as soon as possible after they turn 5 years old.
The only way to be prioritised within the waiting list is if you volunteer with us as a Leader (member of the Section Team), or we sometimes have roles available behind the scenes in the Group Management Team.
All Leaders, helpers and committee members involved in running the Scout Group are volunteers who give up their time to allow your children to enjoy their Scouting experience. We are always looking for new people to get involved, so If you want to help in any capacity please visit our volunteering page to find out more:
