Centenary Scout Hall

We're building a brand-new, fully accessible Scout hall at Peckmill — a lasting home where Beavers, Cubs and Scouts can thrive for the next hundred years. Here's the plan, the progress, and how you can help.

A home for adventure — built to last a century

1st Davenham has been giving young people skills for life for generations. To keep growing, we’re building the Centenary Scout Hall at Peckmill: a modern, warm and fully accessible home where our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts — and the wider community — can thrive for the next hundred years.

Help us build it

Every gift, big or small, takes us a step closer to spades in the ground. Here’s how you can help build the Centenary Scout Hall.

Our journey to spades in the ground

Aug 2023

Planning permission granted

Full planning permission approved by Cheshire West and Chester (reference 22/03821/FUL).
Now

Technical drawings

Our Technical Committee is developing detailed drawings — structural steel, electrics and a full fire-safety plan — on a very tight budget.
Next

Tender pack

The drawings go into a tender pack so construction companies can price the build.
Then

Funding the build

Construction will be financed through our own funds and grants — grant applications are already underway.
Soon

Spades in the ground

With funding secured, we break ground on the new Centenary Scout Hall.
Every pound, every grant and every volunteer hour brings the Centenary Scout Hall closer to reality.
