Skills for Life

Welcome to 1st Merton Park Scout Group. Our group is home to a Squirrel Drey, Beaver Colony, Cub Pack and Scout Troop. We also work in partnership with Merton Park Explorer Unit.

Welcome to 1st Merton Park Scout Group

For over 100 years there has been scouting in Merton Park. We are an active part of the local community and take pride in our connections to Merton Park. We meet at St Mary’s Church Hall throughout the week to bring scouting to those in Merton Park. We do all we can to give young people to opportunity to take part in scouting, take them on exciting tips and help to shape their futures. We are part of the Wimbledon & Wandle Scout District, which in turn is part of the Greater London South West Scout County.
