Welcome to Andromeda Explorer Scout Unit

Explorer Scouts transcends the boundaries of ordinary scouting, where the possibilities are limitless. Picture yourself hiking through forests, conquering rugged terrains, learning new skills all while forging lifelong friendships with fellow explorers who share your passion for exploration.

With each step, you will grow in courage, resilience, and self-reliance, transforming into an intrepid adventurer capable of conquering any challenge that comes your way.

In addition we also provide access to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards. Andromeda Explorers will prepare you to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, adventure, and service. As a participant, you will challenge yourself in four key areas: physical fitness, skill development, community service, and adventurous expeditions. With each step forward, you will unlock new horizons, gain valuable life skills, and become a beacon of inspiration for others.

Finally, our legendary Summer camp offers you the opportunity to spend over a week with your peers, camping in fantastic environments and taking part in amazing activities. Our previous years have featured Scuba Diving, Paddle Boarding, Sea Kayaking, Hiking, Survival Skills, Surfing, Kite Surfing, Coasteering and Paintballing to name a few.
