Who are we
In East Devon District we're committed to supporting, motivating and empowering our young people and volunteers to go further and push the boundaries so we can all have amazing Scouting experiences, make friends and develop #SkillsForLife.
We're registered with Charity Commission for England and Wales, number 301078.
Scouting across East Devon
Our district is made up of 10 scout groups based in the towns and villages across east Devon. Our volunteers offer loads of opportunities for young people to have amazing adventures. We run weekly sessions, camps, activities, and lots more.
Our Groups run Beaver Colonies, Cub Packs, and Scout Troops and are based in: Axminster, Beer, Colyton, Honiton, Lym Vale, Ottery St Mary, Seaton, Sid Vale, Tipton St John, and Whimple.
Beavers

We hop, skip and jump our way through lots of different games and activities and have lots of fun along the way!
Cubs

Being a cub is all about growing and learning in small but mighty ways.
