Scouting and Girlguiding

With tailored activities, we can support Brownies, Cubs, Guides and Scouts to achieve the relevant badges and develop their skills. We regret that we are unable to offer activities to groups younger than Brownies and Cubs.

We strongly support the Guiding ethos, and advocate that careers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) are for everyone.

Brownies and Cubs

Brownie and Cub groups are welcome to visit the Astrocampus, the University of York's observatory. They will have the opportunity to try out the telescopes to explore the solar system and constellations, as well as having a tour of the Astrocampus.

This will link to the Brownie 'Space' badge and the Cub 'Astronomer Activity' badge.

Astrocampus sessions restart in November. If you would like to arrange a visit, please complete the form below.
