Each section were working towards badges focusing on the community and those who serve, and all thoroughly enjoyed the presentations and talks that were given, from the very youngest Beavers through to Cubs and up to Scouts.

In honour of their visitors the older children in the Scout Troop created a ‘pioneering Chinook’ for the other sections to ‘fly’ and share with their visitors.

Much was learnt about the work of the charity and great evenings were enjoyed by all with the group raising £150 in donations.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the speakers that visited our group and thoroughly recommend anyone taking the opportunity to learn more about this fantastic charity and the lifesaving work it carries out.
