Going to University or College?  

The Student Scout and Guide Organisation (SSAGO) is for Scouts and
Guides who are at University or College.  We're a national,
non-uniformed, organisation and have clubs at many institutions
throughout the UK.   Even if there isn't a club where you're going,
you can still join as an Individual member or if you find enough
interested friends, start your own club!  (New clubs are being started
at Liverpool, Sheffield, Stirling, Aberystwyth, Manchester Met, Nene
College and many others.  If you're heading to these places please
tell me right away.)

SSAGO members take part in a wide range of activities, ranging from
outdoor pursuits like canoeing, camping and hiking , to social
evenings at the pub or cinema.  It's a bit like a Venture Unit away
from home, you can even keep up activities towards your Queen's Scout
award if you wish.  Every term there's a National Rally where SSAGO
members from all over the UK meet up... get involved in various
activities from potholing and climbing to a trip to a brewery or
chocolate factory... generally partying all weekend and having a great
time!

SSAGO is also great from Scouting's point of view as it keeps members
in contact during their University years, and the members of SSAGO
often help out locally with Scouting either as helpers or by running
events and competitions.

If you or your Venture Scouts are off to University or College this
September please drop our  secretary a line for more information, (if
possible letting him know which University or College you're heading
to).

Looking forward to seeing you in the Autumn!
