Stanley’s Own have been giving young people skills for life since 1910.
We’re one of the oldest groups in the county, founded by Major R. C. H. Sloane-Stanley, a colleague of Scouting’s founder Baden-Powell and of Paulton’s fame. That’s why we’re Stanley’s Own and we’ve been going strong ever since with over 200 young people meeting here each week.
