We are the 16th Wyre Forest (St Michaels) Scout Group, part of the UK’s biggest mixed youth organisation.
We change lives by offering 4 to 18 year-olds fun and challenging activities, unique experiences, everyday adventure and skills for life.
Scouts helps children and young adults reach their full potential. We help young people to get jobs, save lives and even change the world.
The 16th Wyre Forest Scout Group is committed to giving young people the skills and confidence to thrive. But for many families, the cost and logistics of transport are preventing their children from taking part in activities that define the Scouting experience. Our project to purchase a new lightweight 17-seater minibus will change that.
We will be holding our Group Annual General Meeting on Wed 17th Sept 2025 where we will be celebrating the past year at Scouts 16th Wyre Forest (St Michael’s) In preparation we would like to open up the invite for anyone who would like to become a trustee of the Scout Group. You can join us in making a positive difference to local young people aged 4 – 18 years. We always welcome new adults to join our teams in helping to provide fun, friendships, exciting activities and skills for life. At this time, we are especially looking for you to support the group behind the scenes. As each Scout Group is a charity, we must have a board of trustees. If you are interested and would like to know more please contact Mark Gould (Group Lead Volunteer) through the website for for further details. All applications to be received by Monday 1st June 2026
