Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Date: 23rd Dec 2020 Author: Carol Anderson

As the winter term comes to an end we will all be reflecting on what has been a challenging year.

Despite the challenges we faced, our young people and amazing volunteers showed true resilience and still enjoyed a fantastic programme teaching skills for life and providing our young people with a much needed escape through everyday adventure. We are incredibly proud of all of our members for how they adapted and made the best of the situation.  Never before has Scouting seemed so important.

We’d like to share the below video which sums up the last few months – what a great term is was!

As we look to the New Year and a return to Level 4 in our area, face to face Scouting will unfortunately have to pause.  Hopefully this will just be for a short while and we can get back to it as soon as possible. In the meantime we have some exciting plans for the new year to keep our young people engaged – watch this space!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from everyone at the 88th!
