For over 100 years, 5th Holme Valley (Meltham) have been providing Scouting to the young people in and around the Meltham area of West Yorkshire. We encourage our young people to do more, learn more and be more. As Scouts, we believe in preparing young people with skills for life. Each week, The Scouts give over 460,000 young people the opportunity to enjoy fun and adventure while developing the skills they need to succeed, now and in the future. We’re talking about teamwork, leadership and resilience – skills that have helped Scouts become everything from teachers and social workers to astronauts and Olympians. We’re a worldwide movement, creating stronger communities and inspiring positive futures. We believe in bringing people together. We celebrate diversity and stand against intolerance, always. #SkillsForLife Scouting 5th Holme Valley (Meltham) Scout Group is part of The Scout Association within the United Kingdom. Charity numbers: 306101 (England and Wales) and SC038437 (Scotland).
