Operating under the national Student Scout and Guide Organisation (SSAGO) as the Newcastle Universities Student Scout and Guide Group (NUSSAGG).

We are for anyone who is or wants to be involved in Scouting or Guiding. Whether that's coming to socials and activities to volunteering as a regular or occasional leader. We also have a very active Discord server, with other SSAGO clubs from across the country, which you are welcome to join!

Everyone is welcome even if you have never been involved in Scouting or Guiding before. We run & attend regular activities both locally and on regional and national scales. In the past these have included a national Secret Santa in ‘Spoons, Day Hikes, Climbing, Camping, Bowling, Comedy Nights, and a whole lot more! If you want to volunteer with a local group we can help you find a suitable group, support you with relevant training and adventurous activity permits (climbing, nights away, etc.). We can also support you through the Top Awards (e.g. Queen’s Scout Award) and Duke of Edinburgh’s (DofE) Award, etc.

There are activities for everyone so come along and we can find you something to do! We aim to be as inclusive as possible, however if you have any specific inclusivity questions or concerns either before or after signing up, please feel free to contact our Welfare Officer.

Due to our affiliation with SSAGO, we also ask all members to sign up on the SSAGO website (alongside joining the society on here) - this is free of charge for you (your society membership covers affiliation fees) and will ensure you get our regular emails, etc.
