Welcome to 1st Highworth

Scouting changes lives. That’s a fact. But don’t take our word for it – come along and give it a try!

Based in the Swindon North District in the county of Wiltshire, we are part of the UK’s biggest mixed youth organisation. We change lives by offering 6 to 14-year-old girls and boys fun and challenging activities, unique experiences, everyday adventure and the chance to help others so that we make a positive impact in our communities.
