Scouts NI Network is being re-energised to create more opportunities for 18–25-year-olds across Northern Ireland to connect, build skills and enjoy Scouting in a fresh and social way.
Network is designed specifically for young adults. While many Network members also volunteer as leaders, this is a space focused on their own development, experiences and connections.
Grace Owens is leading this work as Network Lead within the NI 14–24 Team, helping to strengthen communication and develop engaging opportunities for young adults across the region.
What is Network?
Network offers:
Opportunities to meet other 18–25-year-olds from across Northern Ireland
Social and skills-based activities
Outdoor challenges and shared experiences
A space shaped by young adults, for young adults
What’s Coming Up?

Scouts are do-ers and give-it-a-go-ers, and it's for everyone. We go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling and canoeing. We make friends, have fun, play games, and work in teams.
