Plast
Ukrainian scouting organisation in Great Britain

A fairly large contingent of Ukrainians came to Great Britain in 1947-48, among whom were Plast members. They began working to build ‘stanytsi’ (plast centres) in towns where there was a Ukrainian community.

These were in:

• Bradford
• Derby
• Wolverhampton
• London
• Leicester
• Manchester
• Nottingham

Plast membership is divided into five age groups.

• Ptasheniata (Little Birds) 4-6 years of age
• Novaky (Cub Scouts) 6-12 years of age
• Yunaky (Scouts) 12-18 years of age
• Starshi Plastuny (Rover Scouts) 18-35 years of age
• Seniory (Senior Scouts) age over 35
