Happy New Year everyone! 🎉

As we head into a new year and start thinking about our New Year’s resolutions, why not consider becoming a Scout volunteer? Every Scout group relies on volunteers to keep things running, and we’re always grateful for extra hands.

Volunteering isn’t just about helping at section nights there are lots of different ways to get involved behind the scenes too. Even giving an hour of your time when you can, can make a real difference to our young people and the group as a whole.

If you’re interested or would like to find out more, please scan the QR code below, email us using the address provided, or simply send us a message here. We’d love to hear from you!

Now that our Advent has shared some of our 2025 highlights, we thought we’d wrap it all up with 2nd Acomb 2025 Wrapped.
We’ve made some amazing memories, celebrated brilliant achievements, and want to show just how much we’ve grown and everything we’ve done this year.
We’ve loved every section night, camp, meeting and every opportunity we’ve had to be part of 2nd Acomb, and we can’t wait to carry this momentum into the new year.

Thank you to everyone for following along
see you all in the new year! 🎉⚜️
