Our daughter was a Rainbow in the UK but the ruling is not the same as the Scouts so she has to go on a waiting list.

We are hoping to end up in the Bayside area (around the
Birkdale/Cleveland/Ormiston area) and it would be great if you
could let us know of any groups in that area.
Any thing that will help my daughter settle and make friends
is welcome.
Thanks Karen.

Baden-Powell (1857 - 1941)
Baron Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell was a British general and the founder of the Boy Scout movement.
He was born in London, England, UK. After studying at Charterhouse he joined the army in 1876, served in India and Afghanistan, and won fame during the Boer War as the defender of Mafeking (1899-1900).
He is best known as the founder in 1908 of the Boy Scouts and in 1910, with his sister Agnes (1858-1945), of the Girl Guides. He published Scouting for Boys in 1908, founded the Wolf Cubs in 1916, and was acclaimed world chief scout in 1920
