This age group has its own programme called Discover based on three areas; community, recreation and skills. Young people get the change to develop existing skills and learn new ones, through a fun, balanced and challenging programme of activities. Young people are encouraged to have a say and help shape their own programme. They can get involved in anything from helping others in their local community to playing sports, trying out adventure activities or being creative through dance or art - there's something for everyone! There are also opportunities to go away on camps and residentials, which are often the highlights in the annual programme.

The Company Section runs for children aged 11 - 15 years old. 


Awards
Throughout their time in this age group young people can gain badges and recognition for their participation in the programme. There's also an opportunity for young people to start out on working towards their Duke of Edinburgh's Award and within the BB  to culminate in being awarded their President's Badge. 

Safe & Caring
All our adult volunteers undergo an enhanced DBS (criminal records) check as part of their registration with The Boys' Brigade, and are trained to provide a safe & caring environment for all children. 

How do you join?
The best way to get involved is to find your local group (also known as a 'Company') by using the Boys' Brigade 'Company Finder' tool. All you need is your postcode and you'll be given a list of your nearest companies. Get in touch with your nearest Company by completing the online contact form or just pop along on the day and time the group meets.

We Would Love to Have You Join Soon!
