British Guiding and Scouting

Beavers: (held at DESS)

Beaver Scouts are aged between six and eight years old, and are the youngest members of the British Scout Association. They usually meet once a week and take part in a wide range of activities including games, crafts, singing, visits and good turns, along with plenty of outdoors activity. We will be starting a Beavers here at DESS from the Summer term on Thursdays 4.45 to 5.45pm. If you wish your son or daughter to come along and join us please contact me with their name and date of birth at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Thank you. Sue Marlow. Group Scout Leader.

1st Doha Scout Group: (held at DESS)

The 1st Doha Scout Troop is part of British Scouts Overseas and meets weekly at DESS in the small gym at 5.00pm on Tuesdays during term time. The Troop has vacancies for boys and girls aged between 10½ to 14 years old; no previous scouting experience is required. We cover a wide range of activities aimed at developing young people with pursuits they might not necessarily encounter at school or elsewhere. The onus is on the troop members themselves to take the initiative and plan their own activities, supervised by our two qualified Scout Leaders. If your son or daughter is interested in joining the Worldwide Family of Scouting (currently at 28 million members), then please get in contact with the Scout Leader, Colin Tye, known as Skip, at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
