Scouting teaches Young People life-long skills that will help prepare them to take a full role in their communities in their adult life. Team building, communication, emergency aid, self-awareness, planning, commitment, leadership, and many more all form part of the programme that shapes young people and gives them a very positive boost in future employment.

Without a doubt, scouting is a life-changing adventure, 2nd Portsmouth aims to provide the very best opportunities from the youngest to the oldest.

​

2nd Portsmouth recognises that other than the personal benefits of Scouting to young people, Scouting has a wider purpose to positively affect society. Good Scouting helps young people learn skills for life, gain confidence, and develop the desire to make their world a better place.
