About 7th Malden
We are a popular, and successful Scout Group in New Malden with vibrant Beaver, Cub and Scout sections and excellent links with the Explorer units in the local area which serve the over 14s. We offer a full programme of meetings, camps and events in all our sections. All activities are run according to UK Scout Association policies, organisation and rules.
We have strong teams of adult leaders and supporters, a sociable bunch who enjoy each others company both in and out of Scouting and join enthusiastically in the activities which the young people are doing.
Why should the kids have all the fun!
As well as weekly meetings in term time and camps, the Group specialises in archery, air rifle shooting, hill-walking, light-weight expeditions, wild camps and climbing. We like to throw in water activities such as raft biulding, kayaking and sailing too.
Please explore the pages on this site to find out more and then use our waiting list registration pages if you are a young person interested to join or our volunteering pages if you are an adult interested to discuss helping out in any capacity.
Thanks for your interest!

Waiting list update
We expect to have spaces in our Beaver Colony and Cub Pack in the coming year and spaces in our Scout Troop may arise. Read on for details.
We regularly take young people from our waiting list at the start of each term. As well as the predicted spaces shown below, places also arise in all of the sections where someone leaves, e.g., due to moving out of the area. So whatever you age group, it is always worth being on the waiting list.
- Beavers (6-8 yrs) – currently full
- April 2025 – 5 spaces predicted
- September 2025 – 4 spaces predicted
- January 2026 – 2 spaces predicted
- Cubs (8-101/2 yrs) – currently full
- January 2026 – 1 space predicted
- Scouts (101/2 – 14 yrs) – currently full
For those wanting to join our Beaver Colony we suggest registering on our waiting list when a child reaches their 4th birthday, if not before.
There is no waiting list for those wishing to join our leader and support teams – adult volunteers are always welcome!
- Beavers (6-8 yrs) – currently full

Ask Robert
At a recent meeting, Scouts explored the use of artificial intelligence tools to write limericks reflecting Scouting values and to generate images on a number of themes (some wackier than others)!
Not sure about the cat theme!

Christmas Good Turns
As usual, over the Christmas period we are asking the Beavers, Cubs and Scouts to “Do a good turn” every day. This could be helping a neighbour, washing up, or tidying their bedroom, &c.
The Beaver, Cub and Scout with the best tally of good turns will win a prize (one prize per section) and all participants will receive a reward.
If you are a parent or 7th Malden Scout Group member, don’t forget to submit your completed tally sheet on or before 5th January!
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and another great year of Scouting in 2025.
