Group Scout Leader’s Report
I hope you have enjoyed reading the annual reports from Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers. Reflecting back on the massive amounts that have been achieved despite the many challenges we have all faced, I am extremely proud of all the Leaders, Young Leaders and all our young people, not to mention their parents, who have provided more hands-on support than ever this year.
It has certainly been a year of two halves with a wide range of outdoor and indoor opportunities for all ages, from September until mid-March – camps, outings, expeditions, activities at 15th scout halls and Explorer
