There is no requirement to wear a uniform straight away. Your child can wear ordinary clothes to begin with whilst they settle in and you are confident they wish to become a member of the Scout Group. The local Scout Shop is in the Chesterfield Headquarters on Marsden Place, where you can try uniform on for size before purchasing. See their website for more information.

Uniform only has to be worn once invested. If you are in financial hardship there is a fund available from the Scout Association to help with purchasing a uniform but to apply for this you may have to disclose financial information. Unfortunately, there is no such funding available for paying membership fees known as subs. The first session is free of charge. Thereafter, the subs are £4 per session. We have a card machine for contactless payments (we are trying to avoid cash due to COVID 19) or you can set up a standing order for £10 per month – this works out cheaper and if you wish to do this you can set it up with your own bank account using the below information:
Our bank details: Natwest

See the attached membership details form and our group’s privacy notice in compliance with GDPR. This form only needs completing once you have decided to join our Scout Group.

You are welcome to stay and observe if you wish to do so. However, many of the parents drop off and pick up and the end of the meeting. If you do decide to leave we will require you to provide the leaders on the night with a contact telephone number.

If you have any queries then don’t hesitate to get in touch or ask any of the leaders on the night.

Please get in touch if there’s anything more you need to know.
