Skills for Life

Did you know that the Scout Association offers fun and everyday adventures to over 457,000 young people between the ages of 4 and 25? It’s incredible! And guess what? This amazing organisation is supported by over 154,000 adult volunteers across the United Kingdom.

Welcome to 1st Westgate-on-Sea Scout Group

Formed in 1926, our Scout group is one of the oldest Groups in Thanet. Following the Scout Association’s programme, we provide young people aged 4-14 with valuable ‘Skills for life’ through a range of activities, badges & awards.

Our group has members from all over Westgate and we strive to ensure that our young people have fun, make new friends and create lasting memories during their Scouting journey.
