Company | Seniors
The core age range of Company Section is from 11 – 18 years
The Programme
This age group has its own programme based on six areas, Get Active, Get into the Bible, Get Creative, Get Learning, Get Adventurous and Get Involved. Young people get the chance to develop existing skills and learn new ones, through a fun, balanced and challenging programme of activities. Young people are encouraged to have a say and help shape their own programme. They can get involved in anything from helping others in their local community to playing sports, trying out adventure activities or being creative through dance or art – there’s something for everyone! There are also opportunities to go away on camps and residentials, which are often the highlights in the annual programme.
The Uniform
Young people wear a core uniform which can either consist of a blue polo shirt and a navy sweatshirt or a blue shirt & tie. Also members usually wear school trousers and footwear as part of the uniform, but check with your local group.
Safe & Caring
All our adult volunteers undertake a disclosure ( criminal records ) check as part of their registration with The Boys’ Brigade, and are trained to provide a safe and caring environment for all children.
What it costs
Most groups charge a subscription. At 1st Witney we have a £10 joining fee and subs is £2.50 per week and uniform costs around £25. This said, we don’t want any child to miss out because of cost, so if you have any concerns about finance please speak to a leader in the local group in confidence about this.
When do they meet?
The Company Section in the 1st Witney meets on a Thursday evening between 7.50pm – 9.15pm.
