Archery Permit Training Course
2025-09-20 - 2025-09-21 | 32nd Gateshead (1st Whickham St Mary’s) scout group, Whickham
We’re running an archery permit training course on the 20th & 21st September. No prior experience of the activity is necessary, and we’ll teach everything that you’ll need to know to be able to apply for your own permit to deliver archery within Scouting.
The course costs £15. Please email archery@durhamscouts.org.uk to apply (places will be first-come first-served) or to register your interest for future courses.

As the HQ deadline date of 14th July approaches for completion of New Safety Learning we are making good progress – we are now under the 300 mark of volunteers still needing to complete. Conscious that Digital skills might be a barrier for some we are putting on a drop in session to support those volunteers. This session is specifically for those volunteers with outstanding Safety training and county/district leadership team members.
Session: Digital Tools Drop-in
Date: 12th July 2025
Time: 10:00-15:00
Venue: Camo Cabin, Moor House Adventure Centre, DH4 6QY
What’s happening?: Come along to a drop-in with one of our digital tools supporters. We can help with all aspects of the new Scouts digital tools, including getting logged in, accessing learning, understanding reports, and anything else!
