We're a Air Scout Group based in Hempstead, Gillingham, Kent. We have active sections ranging from Beavers (starting at 6 years old) through to the Fellowship (18+), with the combined aim of offering fun, excitement and new opportunities to young people.
About Scouting
The Scout Association provides adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for 400,000 young people aged 6-25. Internationally, we have over 28 million young people enjoying the benefits of Scouting across 216 countries.
About our Group - the mighty 20th!
Formed on 11th October 1962, the 20th Gillingham is one of the most active Scout Groups in Gillingham, with 7 sections meeting throughout the week. We benefit from a great HQ in the middle of Hempstead, and a fantastic band of leaders and helpers who ensure everything runs smoothly.
