Their sessions are designed for Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers, offering young people the chance to challenge themselves, build confidence, strengthen teamwork and communication skills, and enjoy a rewarding physical activity in a safe and supportive environment.

Whether you are looking for a fun evening out, a more structured badge-focused session, or a premium activity experience, we have a range of options to suit your group.

Option 3: Climbing Activity Badge & Tomahawk Throwing (Premium Option) 3 hour session

A longer and more varied session, ideal for summer programmes, end-of-term celebrations, or special group visits.

This premium option combines the structured climbing badge session with the exciting addition of tomahawk throwing, giving your group a unique and memorable adventure experience.

Includes:

  • All climbing badge activities included in Option 2
  • Introduction to safe tomahawk throwing
  • Supervised target-based tomahawk activity

A tomahawk is a specially designed single-handed throwing axe used for target sports. Participants will learn how to throw safely and aim accurately under close supervision.
