Lonsdale District Scout Shop
New term… New name… New location…
After more than 50 years of selling Scout and Girlguiding uniforms in Lancaster, the time has sadly come for us to say goodbye to the city centre.
Rising costs mean it is no longer viable for us to maintain a base in the heart of the city—but fear not, we’re not going far!
On Saturday September 6th, the shop will reopen at 10:30 a.m. at Halton Scout HQ on Foundry Lane in Halton. Our new location is easily accessible by car (just five minutes from the Bay Gateway and M6), offers free parking, and is only a 25-minute bike ride from our old home on Moor Street.

We are sad to announce that we will no longer be selling Girlguiding uniforms, in line with this change, we are also taking the opportunity to update our name to Lonsdale District Scout Shop
Lonsdale District Scout Shop is the official local Scout store run by a group of volunteers and is open for the sale of Scout uniforms, badges and assorted training aids and gifts.
We accept payment by card for contactless and chip card payments.
Opening hours: (except for Bank and School holidays).
Saturday 10.30am – 12.30pm.
We can order selected items that are on the Scout Store’s website saving you the cost of postage (currently £3.99).
Every purchase supports Scouting locally.
Trading surpluses from items sold in the Scouts section of the Shop have been used to subsidise Lonsdale’s finances, including membership subscriptions. More members are therefore encouraged to buy their uniforms from our
trading arm rather than from elsewhere.

District Headquarters
Our District HQ is now closed.
The decision to close the HQ was made so that we could invest more of our money in to providing the best Scouting to all of our young people.
