6th Shirley Scout Group is a thriving Scout Group located in its own headquarters in the grounds of Shirley Heath Junior School in the heart of Shirley in Solihull. At present, the Group has well over 150 young people using its facilities on a weekly basis. These young people are led and supported by a dedicated team of over 30 Leaders, Assistants, and Helpers who deliver Everyday Adventure to our members. The Group is run by an Executive Committee comprised of parents, leaders and members of the local community who all have on thing in common – ensuring young people get the best start in life by getting the most out of Scouting.

If you still think Scouting is just about boys, tents and woggles, think again, you might just change your mind. With over 200 activities on offer and half a million members (including 60,000 girls) Scouting offers everyday adventure to young people and adult volunteers. Welcome to a new kind of Scouting.
