The 1st Pentwyn Group was officially registered on 25th October 1977, although it had been running for some time prior to that date. Our first Group Scout Leader was Paul Baker, with John Kelly as Cub Scout Leader. As one of the 8,994 Groups within the United Kingdom, we are based within the Scout District of Cardiff East and South, which is itself one of five Districts within the Scout Area of Cardiff and The Vale of Glamorgan, affectionately referred to as CATVOG. In turn, CATVOG is one of 113 Scout Counties (or Areas) that serve the current interests of a total current membership of half a million young people and Adult supporters. The 1st Pentwyn is justly proud to form part of the largest youth movement in this country. On a world-wide scale, there are impressively more than 28 million members, representing 200 countries. Membership is open to boys and girls, men and women, of all faiths and is bound by its Policy of Equal Opportunities and Child Protection Policy. We would welcome you to join us either as a young member, or as an Adult Leader or Helper working to provide the fun and challenges that the young people of our communities look for. As an Adult Leader you will work with a Leadership Team, and we will provide you with all the support and Training required. If, however, you are unable to devote the time as a Leader, the Group is constantly looking for occasional Helpers who may have particular skills in the wide variety of subjects the young people undertake. Or, you may wish to work as a member of the background team who help to raise funds and generally provide administrative support to the Leaders. So, whether you're 6 or 60+, come and join with the Scout Group that is helping to make Pentwyn and the ever growing Pontprennau a better area to live in!
