YOUNG people who are seeking adventure are being encouraged to join their local Scout group.

The Scouts are the UK’s biggest mixed youth organisation, offering those aged from six to 25 the chance to enjoy fun activities.

A spokesperson for the organisation said: “You don’t have to be an adventurer like Bear Grylls to get involved with Scouting.”
