Skills for Life

We help young people gain the skills they need to shine bright

St John’s Heron Cross Scouts are based in Heron Cross, Stoke-on-Trent. We are part of Three Towns Scouts.

Welcome to 124th St. John’s Heron Cross Scout Group

Scouts are do-ers and give-it-a-go-ers. Yes, we go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling and canoeing. But we also get to hang out with our friends every week – having fun, playing games, working in a team and taking on new challenges.

Sign up to help your child discover their ‘thing’: from abseiling to coding to performance art and everything in between.
