Welcome to the first Derbyshire Scout
Activity Directory.

This booklet is a collection of useful
information and contacts for Scout
Active Support Units (SASUs), Activity
Teams, Campsites and events which
offer exciting opportunities for Scouts
in Derbyshire.

We hope it will bring more exposure to
the wealth of support and resources available
and inspire Scout Groups around the County to
get involved with fun activities available on their
doorstep.

Thank you to all that have contributed to this
directory and helped to make it a reality. We
look forward to the next year and hope you will
enjoy using and promoting this fantastic new
resource.

All of the teams featured in this booklet are run by volunteers. Whilst they
will endeavour to offer sessions to all Scout Groups, there may
unfortunately be restrictions on times, days and locations to work around
the teams commitments. Sessions may also include a charge to help
cover the cost of resources, transport and equipment maintenance.
