Wanting to Join the Adventure?

It’s pretty simple to join, all you have to do is complete the form below.

Please note this enquiry form is for Cottingham Scout Group ONLY. There may be a closer group to you (even if you live in Cottingham) which you may want to enquire with too. To find your closest group, head to the group finder on The Scouts website.


What happens next?

Once you have clicked the ‘Submit’ button it will be sent to one of our amazing volunteers. They will make sure all the information you’ve provided looks ok and will then add you onto our waiting list. It is likely you won’t hear anything from us until a place is available.

Help us out!

The Scouts relies on volunteers to keep our groups running, if you are able to spare your time it means we can change more lives by allowing us to open up more places for young people. If you want to find out more, head over to our volunteer page.

What is the Waiting List?

We are simply too popular! So the fairest way we can offer our fun and adventure is by holding a waiting list. When a space become available our volunteers will select the next suitable person off the list, this is generally done in order of length of time on the list although some other factors may be used such as being the child of a volunteer. We can never estimate how long the wait time is on the list as it can vary based on age and how quickly places become available.
