The Youth Club at Water Street School has closed. This was brought about by the lack of adult volunteers to supervise the sessions.

Guiding
is so popular that we do have waiting lists, which means girls can’t always
join us straight away. We would welcome any adults who would like to join
us, either as a leader or unit helper, so more girls who want to join are
able to. Please contact Sally Garnett, support and training would be given,
just bring your enthusiasm!

2nd Bollington Scout Group
The Group is flourishing and includes Beavers, Cubs and Scouts at present with an Explorer Unit also based at the Scout Hut. We aim to provide an exciting programme with lots of new activities for the young people to try and to have fun. All meetings are held (during term-time only) at the Scout Hut on Albert Road, Bollington. As with many Scout Groups, there can sometimes be a waiting list to join so please put your name down early to avoid having to wait! General information on Scouting can be found at our web site.
