Community Groups

Dunning Scouts are an active and vibrant group promoting the development of young people in achieving their full potential, as individuals, responsible citizens, and members of the community.  With Beavers, Cubs and Scouts sections, and an Explorers Unit, they meet weekly on an evening during school term, and aim to hold either an overnight residential event or special trip each term. For young people age 6-17 and welcome adult volunteers.
