We are Dringhouses Scouts, based in the south of York, bringing fun and adventure to more than 270 young people between the ages of 4 and 18. We are one of the largest of the 14 Scout Groups in the York Ebor District which supports more than 1000 Scouts.
The Group has been running for more than 50 years in the Scout Hall built by former members of the group in the grounds of St Edward the Confessor Church. We get great support from the Church our local council Ward and the local community as a whole.
We are run entirely by volunteers who give their time in many different ways, from being leaders running the meetings and events, to supporting the Group as trustees, or just helping out occasionally.
We are an inclusive group with no restriction on who may join whether gender, ethnicity, ability or religion (or non).
We aspire to offer all our young people the opportunity to be part of a community, engage in fun and adventurous activities and gain Skills for Life. This can be anything from crafts and games for our youngest members, through camping, cooking, organisation and a wide variety of activities many may not get elsewhere. Our oldest members gain the knowledge and ability to embark on expeditions and activities which prepare them for the challenges of adult life.
