Sheppey District Explorers Explorer Scouts Meet on every second Thursday Night. The Sheppey Explorers section is a district section , not group based as with the other sections Explorer Scouts are young people, usually aged between 14 and 18 years old. They make up the fourth Section of the Scouting family. There are many types of Explorer Scout Units, some may be linked to your local Scout Group, others may be based around different activities.Not all Units meet each week, because you will often be out and about at weekends or in the holidays doing activities. There will be times when you will be busy doing other things such as exams, and being an Explorer Scout will have to fit around these. As an Explorer Scout, you will get the chance to work with other Explorer Scouts in other Districts, not just your Unit. By doing this, you will get the chance to do many more activities, not just the ones your Unit organises They have The Challenges from the earlier sections are replaced with the three levels of the Duke of Edinburgh's award scheme The young leaders Scheme (more details below) 14 activity badges 4 staged activity badges the badges are placed on the uniform in a set manner, badge location diagram Full information on the Scoutbase Explorer page
