Spelthorne District, covering; Ashford (Middx), Charlton Village, Laleham, Shepperton, Staines, Stanwell and Sunbury, is proud to be a very active district with not only a large number of district events, but also individual groups who undertake a wide range of activities and challenges on a regular basis.

The Scout Association provides adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for 400,000 young people aged 6-25. Internationally, we have over 28 million young people enjoying the benefits of Scouting across 216 countries.

Personal development means promoting the physical, intellectual, social and spiritual well-being of the individual, helping them achieve their full potential. In Scouting, we believe that young people develop most when they are 'learning by doing,' when they are given responsibility, work in teams, take acceptable risks and think for themselves.
