About Us
3rd Ashton Scout Group is based in Ashton on Mersey Village in the North West of England. With Brownies, Beavers, Cubs and Scouts meeting throughout the week and many camps and activities, we are a very busy group and whilst we gladly welcome new members and helpers, we usually have a waiting list for all sections.
Payment Details
We like all subs to be paid monthly by standing order. The following paperwork is also available at the hut - please ask a leader.

If you didn’t already know, we have a private Facebook group which is primarily to help parents keep informed and to let you see photos of activities and camps. No need to worry if you’re not on Facebook. ALL important info will be sent via email or printed.
A Brief History
3rd Ashton was founded in 1927. Back then the hut was on the site of Harpers Chemist in Ashton Village. The ‘new’ hut we use now was built in 1960.
We’d like to put more information about 3rd Ashton’s past on our site so if you used to be involved with 3rd Ashton and you have any interesting stories, facts or photos we’d love to hear from you! Contact us
Want to join us?
We are always looking for new members.
From 6yrs through to adult helpers we’d be glad to hear from you. Please use our contact page to add a child to the waiting list or just ask a quick question.
Please note: Our Beaver section has quite a long waiting list and we recommend adding children as soon as they’re born! On the other hand, there is no waiting list for adult volunteers, so what are you waiting for?
Drop off
Pick up
BEAVERS / CUBS / BROWNIES: Parents must ensured their child arrives at the hut and signs in before passing responsibility to the leaders. At the end of each meeting children are to wait in the hut until they are collected, please do not ask your child to meet you on the road. We understand parking can be difficult but child safety is clearly more important.
SCOUTS / EXPLORERS / YOUNG LEADERS: We recognise that some of the older children may not be escorted to and from the meetings however we cannot be held responsible for your child prior to entering and signing in with the leader or once they have left the premises at the close of the meetings.
PARKING: Please be considerate to our neighbours when dropping off and picking up ~ Thank You.
