We’re part of something bigger. As members of The Scout Association, we share a national vision: to prepare young people with skills for life. Locally, we’re making that vision a reality in Needham Market.
A brand-new home: July 2026
Our biggest strategic milestone is almost here. In July 2026, we open the doors to our brand-new Scout Centre — a purpose-built headquarters that will transform what we can offer our young people.
The new centre gives us more space for activities, better storage for equipment, accessible facilities, and room to grow our sections. It’s the result of years of fundraising, planning, and community support.
Our strategic priorities
Growth
We want every young person in our area who wants to try Scouting to have that opportunity. Our new HQ enables us to run more sessions and reduce waiting lists.
Inclusivity
Scouting is for everyone. We actively work to ensure our Group is welcoming regardless of background, ability, faith, or circumstance.
Youth-shaped
Young people help decide what they do. From programme planning to choosing badges, their voice shapes their Scouting experience.
Community impact
Our Scouts regularly contribute to the Needham Market community through service projects, environmental work, and supporting local events. Scouting isn’t just about what young people gain — it’s about what they give back.
