Kit Lists
As Scouts, you will require different types of equipment throughout the year. This depends on the type of activity or camp that you take part in.
Almost all of the time, the kit that you bring will be personal to you. Why not have a look at the different kit lists below, which are really handy when it comes to knowing what to pack for camp.

Purchasing Equipment for Scouts
Equipment for Scouts does not have to be expensive. Most of the time, you can get what you need for Scouts at good prices. Certain items may get muddy, dusty, lost, slept in, or even dropped in water so it is better to avoid the ‘big name expensive brands’ and stick to equipment that is still good quality but cheaper, particularly when it comes to clothing and accessories.
There's no need to buy tents and cooking equipment though, all the larger kit is provided for the whole Troop!
The following retail stores have sales and discounts from time to time and offer a wide range of outdoor equipment and clothing. If you need any advice on equipment you can find out online, go into a store or ask one of the Leaders.
Please click on any of the external links below to be redirected to the store of your choice:
Yeomans Outdoor Leisure
Blacks
Millets
Go Outdoors (store discount card available)
Trespass
Army & Navy Stores (perhaps you have a relative in the Army)
(Scouts: It is worth taking your Scout Record Book or your group Necker into any Blacks or Millets retail store as you may be able to get a discount on purchases. This is only valid for in store purchases that are not done online or over the phone beforehand.)
