Waddecar Scout Camp

Waddecar Scout Activity Centre sits in the Forest of Bowland, Lancashire, along the River Brock just north of Beacon Fell in an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Formerly known as Waddecar Scout Camp, the site combines large woodland pitches and open fields with capacity for nearly a thousand Scouts camping communally, plus indoor accommodation in buildings such as Helme Lodge and Jubilee Base.

The centre serves Scouts, Guides, schools, and other youth organisations, offering a broad range of adventure, challenge, and skills activities amid rolling fields, riverside pitches, and access to the wild Bleasdale Fells.
