Scout & Guide

Whether you've been in Scouting or Guiding for years, or never even heard of them, if you have a passion for camping, the great outdoors and trying new challenges, LUUSAG may be the club for you!

LUUSAG (Leeds University Union Scouts and Guides), is affiliated to SSAGO, the National Student Scout and Guide Organisation. We provide opportunities for likeminded students from all higher education institutes in Leeds to continue or grow their interest in Scouting, Guiding and all that these organisations entail. The society runs like a Scout Network group, through informal meetings and attendance at national events, but we are also able to connect you to local Scout and Guide units if you would like to volunteer during your time at university.

Socials

A normal semester in LUUSAG would consist of two socials weekly – one, a chilled pub lunch in Old Bar, and the other a varying activity. Unsurprisingly, this year is slightly different to any before it, so many of our socials will be moving online.

The first chance to meet us (virtually!) will be our Google Meet during Welcome Week. You can access this meeting at 15:45 on Wednesday 23rd September using this link. Here, you can chat to our members and ask any questions you may have.

For up all the latest updates from LUUSAG, including events and socials, please head to our Facebook group.

SSAGO Events

Teams around the country are working on this year’s national events, including alternative plans if in-person events aren’t authorised. The first of these is a virtual stay-up Freshers event for Scottish and Northern SSAGO clubs. Then there are three national rallies (weekend-long camps), which this year are located in Southampton in November, Milton Keynes in March and Wales next summer. Sheffield are hosting the annual SSAGO ball in February, which is an opportunity to trade in our hoodies and hiking boots for dresses, suits and ties for a night.

SSAGO also has an extremely active Discord server, with channels on almost any topic you can think of (badges from home, LGBTQ+, Animal Crossing, arts and craft, get active and the list goes on).
