Group Homepage

Sandleheath is a successful Scout Group located near Fordingbridge - on the edge of the New Forest.

Being a Sea Scout Troop enables the young people to participate in a range of water activities, as well as a range of 'traditional' Scout activities - such as Camping and Hiking. Many also complete their Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

To see some examples of the activities that we have been involved in, please read the group newsletter - 'Waterlines' in the Waterlines Archive.

Coronavirus lockdown

Scouting continues during the lockdown, albeit with significant restrictions on what activities can take place as we all embrace the great indoors.

The Hampshire Camping Challenge has been modified to be the "#Campathome challenge", and Leaders are encouraging work on personal challenge badges at home.

Here are some pets (belonging to group members) coping with the lockdown:
