Skills for Life

The 1st New Cross Scout group was formed on 17th January 1908 in New Cross, making us one of the oldest Scout groups in the world.

Join our group

Welcome to the 1st New Cross

We offer young people an exciting outlook into their future lives, the prospect of developing their otherwise untapped abilities and the invitation to join the 100 year old adventure that is otherwise known as scouting.

Volunteer with us

Giving back will improve your wellbeing, equip you with skills for the future, and help you make a positive impact on the lives of local young people.
