Welcome to 201st Islington

The 201st Islington is a sea scout group based in Highbury. First founded in 1919 but officially recognised in 1921.

We have three sections within the group; Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. We offer the same level of scouting as land scouts, but we also offer nautical activities as well.

We currently meet on a Monday at two sites, offering an exciting active programme and a host of opportunities to our young people.

If you would like more information or you would like to join us, use the contact us link.

Thanks for visiting our site.
