Intro
Part of the biggest coeducational youth movement in the country, as well as the biggest youth movement in the world, 7thA Rochdale Scout Group was founded in 1943, making it one of the older Scout Groups in Rochdale. We cover all ages from 6 to 14, with the older children joining Rochdale’s Explorer Scout Unit, which we also co-host. In 1999, we became the first association Scout group in the Rochdale Scout District to become fully Co-educational, admitting girls to all our sections. Like scouts the world over, our members enjoy a wide range of activities from climbing & Camping, ice skating to craftwork, the sky is the limit! We have a location on the outskirts of Rochdale Town Centre, with our own, purpose built HQ. Of course, membership of our group is open to all youngsters, of any background, a small waiting list may be operational at some times. We are a uniformed organisation, but this need not be obtained in the first few weeks of joining. You can find out more from our web site, along with links to many other scout web sites.
