The 35th Derby (Markeaton) Scout Group is a fantastic group and would be delighted to welcome your child. If your child is interested in joining the Scouting movement, please fill in the form below and we’ll get back to you shortly with more information.

The Group operates Beavers, Cubs and Scouts with a limit on membership numbers. This is necessary for maintaining safe ratios of leaders to young people as well as enabling us to operate a full, varied and engaging programme. The Beaver Scout Colony has 24 spaces, the Cub Pack has 24 spaces and the Scout Troop has 24 spaces. When sections become full we coordinate a waiting list, however, priority and guarantee are made to young people progressing from one section to the next over the joining of new members from outside of Scouting.
