Scouting in Snowdonia and Anglesey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Snowdonia and Anglesey is a Scout Area of the Welsh Scouting Sgowtiaid Cymru branch of the Scout Association in Wales covering the regions of Snowdonia and the Isle of Anglesey. It is organised in five Scout Districts:-

• Conwy
• Dwyfor
• Isle of Anglesey
• Meirionnydd
• Snowdon

There are 31 Groups. Three of the Districts currently have Explorer Scout Units. There is a Scout Network Unit.

Bangor University Scouts & Guides, affiliated to SSAGO, is situated in this area.

The Welsh Scout Council also maintains the two Welsh headquarters sites in Snowdonia: Hafod - the specialist Mountain traning centre situated in the glacial Ogwen Valley and Cornel, a large camping and indoor accommodation site situated on the banks of Lyn Crafnant, high above the Conwy Valley. Both of these facilities are available to all youth organisations.
