The Team is responsible for the District’s strategy to develop Hill Walking & Trekking Activities so that they become a regular occurrence on the programmes of all Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers & Network in Mersey Weaver.

Purpose of the Team

  • To support District and Groups in the District in delivering hillwalking and trekking events.
  • To create a community of good practice for all adults in Mersey Weaver Scout District who have a ‘Hillwalking’ activity permit, to enable them to maintain and develop their ‘Hillwalking’ skills, experience and knowledge.
