Scouting in Londonderry is a part of the Scout Association in the United Kingdom, covering the city of Derry and the surrounding county of Londonderry in Northern Ireland.
Scouting Ireland also operates in Derry, with around 7 troops scattered through North East Ulster Scout County and Errigal Scout County. Its Northern Province Commissioner is John Miekleham.[1] During the Troubles the number entering the Catholic Boy Scouts of Ireland skyrocketed as parents were eager for their sons to participate in Scouting rather than join the Provisional IRA like many young men of the time[citation needed].
