8th Explorers is now OPEN

Date: 13th Jan 2023 Author: Simon Burney

New Explorers moving up from 8th Aztec Scouts joined Leaders Allison Haines and Amanda Coglan to form our new explorer unit in January. They met in our fantastic new Explorer “Den” which is also now open as an exciting space for Explorers to meet from all across Worcester.

As the next step on from Scouts, Explorers are more independent and usually plan and organise most of their own activities themselves with guiding input from Leaders. The skills of independence, resilience, tenacity come through as Explorers reach towards adulthood, getting more advanced at activities and going on longer expeditions and trips abroad.
