Scouting welcomes royal volunteer
Posted on 05 Jan 2012 at 00:15 by Chris Lambert (Beavers, Cubs, Scouts) (0 user comment)
HRH The Duchess of Cambridge has become Scouting’s newest volunteer and will help at her local cub packs and beaver colonies, Clarence House has announced.
The Duchess, who joins 66,000 girls and 40,000 female leaders in Scouting, will help out at groups close to where she lives. Her Royal Highness also hopes to help with activities in other parts of the United Kingdom as opportunity arises.
The announcement comes as a great endorsement of Scouting’s commitment to allow adults to volunteer their time on a flexible basis. The Duchess will help run a variety of activities relevant to her skills and interests. This could include running games, teaching first aid or cooking on campfires.

Sainsbury's Active Kids is back. You can collect Active Kids vouchers when shopping at Sainsbury's and Sainsbury's Petrol Stations from 9 February to 31 May 2011.
Please give your vouchers to any leader and we can exchange them for sports, outdoor and cooking equipment for the group. In 2010 the group benefited from a range of cooking equipment, a new first aid kit, storage boxes and tea towels courtesy of Active Kids.

Bell Boating, Kayaking and Climbing were the highlights of this weekend at Longridge in Buckinghamshire. The Scouts mostly managed to stay out of the water although some couldn't resist the urge to fall in.
