Surrey Beavers We had a session with 30 beaver scouts aged 6-8 years. The session was brilliant! The beavers were all focused on the activities and excited to have a go with all the equipment provided. Our session leader had an excellent way with the children and kept their attention all times. I have had brilliant feed back from the children and would not hesitate to book again.
I have recommended to our Beaver Colonies in our District. The session was good value for money..

Cardiff (Caerdydd) Beavers 3rd time we've had you visit us. It's a popular night every time and this year we made juggling balls as a follow up. Certainly suitable for the Beaver Scout age range.

Yorkshire, East Riding School We booked a full day workshop for our Year 6 Leavers as an end of school treat. We had an absolutely fantastic day and the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The range and amount of equipment was brilliant; they were all able to take part together. The demonstrations were fun to watch and Dave was quite the comedian! Despite issues with weather, Dave was adaptable, professional and calm throughout.
I would 100% book again and my class echoed this after the session - they asked to do it again the following day! Thank you for helping us to make some wonderful memories..

Greater London Brownies, Guides Our Brownies, Guides and Rangers had a fabulous evening.
The Brownies were fully engaged the whole time and learned lots of new skills. It was lovely to see them laughing and giggling and helping each other. We've had loads of positive comments from parents saying how much their daughters enjoyed it.
The Guides and Rangers also had a very positive and enjoyable experience. Some of them have specific challenges and each one had a go at something they've never done before and in several cases found a skill that they didn't know they had!.
