This weekend, a group of our volunteers, along with volunteers from Tiger Explorer Scout Unit - Troon and Kyle and Carrick District Scouts participated in a two-day first aid course!

It’s not just young people who learn #SkillsForLife—our adults do too!

We all want young people to have the chance to dream big, give it a go, and build skills for life.

But it's not just the young people who benefit from Scouts.

Volunteering is good for boosting your wellbeing, developing CV-friendly skills, making friends and building memories.

Whether you want to support young people or if you're more comfortable planning an adventure from the sidelines, we've got space for you.

In 2025, we began working with South Ayrshire Community Transport (SACT) to expand access to community transport in the Troon area.

South Ayrshire Community Transport offers affordable minibus hire for community groups, with vehicles accommodating up to 16 passengers. Lightweight vehicles are available that can be driven with a standard driving licence. For more information, call 01292 270864 or email info@sacommunitytransport.org

Based in Troon, a 16-seater minibus is available for hire outside of school hours, requiring a D1 driver’s licence.

Many of our activities and camps would not be possible without access to these minibuses. Over the past year, we have travelled all over the country in them, including destinations like Arran, Lochearnhead, Aberfeldy, and even an 800-mile round trip to Norfolk!

2025: It’s Been Incredible!

This video captures some of the moments that have made 2025 so memorable for the Scout troop.

We’re passionate about delivering nights away opportunities, and in 2025, the troop racked up a combined total of 1,054 nights away.

To every single one of our adult volunteers and our wonderful young leaders on the Scout team—THANK YOU! Your passion and dedication allows all of these opportunities to happen, both on camps and during our weekly meetings for our young people.

2026 is shaping up to be our biggest camping year ever, and we are set to break our annual nights away record. We look forward to returning to Bonaly, Edinburgh for a week long summer camp in 2026.

We are actively looking for new volunteers. Help young people gain Skills for Life. Join the team: group@28thayrshire.org.uk
