The first half term is a trial period for your child - they do not need to pay subs or buy uniform. After their first half term, subs are £20 per half term.
They will need uniform after the first half term. You can often find uniform cheaper on second hand websites.
We recommend that they have a camp blanket, regardless of if they are coming on camps or not. This is a way to display badges from Beavers when they move up to Cubs, and also display blanket badges which we sometimes earn in meetings. It functions as a memory blanket, and can also have swimming badges, guide badges and any fun badges they want on it.
We try to offer Beavers the opportunity to come on camps multiple times a year. These are usually one night, and costs are usually around £15 for one night, although this varies depending on location and activities.
We take the majority of our payments through the online scout manager parent portal (www.onlinescoutmanager.co.uk/login.php ).
We strongly believe that scouting should be accessible to anyone, and are very happy to discuss different ways we can support you if you are struggling with the costs. We never want anyone to feel stressed about being able to pay subs!
