Activities
The Outdoor Adventures Team provide events, have-a-go sessions, training and assessment for permits and support Groups and Districts to get outdoors and enjoy Scout adventures.
The team has
primarily been put in place to support Adventurous Activities. These are
the activities that The Scout Association state Leaders need to be
qualified for (Permit) or organise a qualified instructor to undertake that
activity.
In
addition we have also put in place support for activities that may not
require a permit but with additional support, instructors and equipment
will bring adventure to more young people.

Scouts in Partnership with Ashford Borough Council and Ashford Leisure
Trust operate a watersports centre at Conningbrook Lakes, Willesborough,

ages, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers, Network and Adult volunteers. We
offer bell boats, canoes, kayaks, rafting and dinghy's.
We
also offer training for section specific badges and Permit Assessment.
Levels vary depending on experience and age and most assessments at
Conningbrook are site specific or at an elementary level.
Disciplines support
are bell boats, canoes, kayaks, dinghy's and safety rescue. However,
our team can support your development through the Permit scheme and work
with you to gain the training and assessment you require at a range of
other locations around Kent and beyond.
