About Us

City of Newcastle Scout District has 1,300 active members Scouting around the city and in surrounding areas.

We change lives by offering 6 to 25 year-olds fun and challenging activities, unique experiences, everyday adventure and the chance to help others so that we make a positive impact in communities.

Scouts helps children and young adults reach their full potential. Scouts develop skills including teamwork, time management, leadership, initiative, planning, communication, self-motivation, cultural awareness and commitment. We help young people to get jobs, save lives and even change the world.

Put your phone down and what are you left with? Just teamwork, courage and the skills to succeed.’
