We’ve been bringing fun, friendship, and outdoor adventure to the young people of Bassett since 1914 - that’s over a century of campfires, muddy boots, and unforgettable memories.
We run Squirrels (4-5), Beavers (6-8), Cubs (8-10½), and Scouts (10½-14) from our woodland HQ just off Vermont Close in Bassett, Southampton. Whether it’s den building, hiking, night hikes, or learning to cook (questionably) over a fire, there’s always something new to try and a badge to earn!
We're a registered charity (No. 302300) in England and Wales, proudly run by a small but mighty team of volunteers. No one gets paid - we do it for the joy, the chaos, and the chance to watch young people grow in confidence, skill, and teamwork.
We’re part of Southampton City District Scouts, and open to all young people who want to try new things, make new friends, and get stuck in - rain or shine.
Over the years, we’ve survived everything from break-ins and falling trees to lost records and time capsules, but the adventure never stops. We're still here, stronger (and slightly muddier) than ever!
If you’re looking for somewhere your child can have fun, feel safe, and learn skills for life - or if you fancy getting involved yourself - we’d love to welcome you to the 7th Bassett Scout family.
