Welcome to the Clackmannanshire District Scouts website.

Clackmannanshire Scouting has 500 youth members, both male and female, aged from 6 to 25, supported by 110 adult volunteers.

Scouting is organised into local Groups, who look after the three younger Sections: Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. Young people over the age of 14 are managed by the District.

This website will keep you updated as to what is happening in Scouting across the Clackmannanshire District.
