Flixton Explorer Scout Unit has seen quite a few leaders. In the first year of forming, Flixton Explorer Scout Unit has seen four assistant leaders come and go, this is due to other commitments, however the E.S.L has remained the same since day one.
In 2005, Flixton Explorer Scout Unit celebrated their greatest triumph by winning the Greater Manchester West County Camping Competition.
