This term, Seeonnee Cubs will be supporting Ashby Foodbank as part of our efforts to help people in our local community and work towards their world challenge badge.

We’d love the group to get involved by bringing in donations of essential food and household items. It’s a great opportunity to make a positive difference locally.

Items that would be particularly appreciated include:

Food items

1. Ideally packet instant custard however tinned custard is also fine
2. Rice pudding
3. Tinned pulses
4. UHT (long life) milk
5. Tinned carrots, peas, sweetcorn etc
6. Tinned hot meat
7. Instant whip, Angel Delight, Jelly
8. Coffee

Toiletries

1. Spray deodorant
2. Toothpaste
3. Shower gel
4. Shampoo

Household items

1. Toilet rolls
2. Washing up liquid

Please ensure that all food donations are unopened, in date and in good condition.

We’ll be collecting donations up until the end of November.

Donations can be placed in the container marked Ashby Foodbank just inside the back entrance to Donisthorpe Scout Centre.

Every contribution, however small, will make a difference to local families who need a little extra support especially around Christmas time.

Thank you, as always, for your generosity and for helping us show our group the importance of community spirit and looking out for others.

Thank you to everybody that came to Apple day today and supported our stall. We had great fun and raised a lot of money to put towards lots of exciting things in the future for our young people.

This evening, PCSO Fearn and PCSO Ramsay had the pleasure of visiting Ashby Cubs at Donisthorpe Scout Centre 👮

During the visit, we spent time talking to the children about the role of a Police Community Support Officer, explaining the variety of duties we carry out within the local community, including providing reassurance, tackling local concerns, working with schools and community groups, and helping to keep people safe 👍

The Cubs were fantastic ambassadors for their group and asked a range of thoughtful and interesting questions about policing, our equipment, how we help members of the public. It was great to see so much enthusiasm and curiosity, and we thoroughly enjoyed sharing an insight into our role and hearing from the young people themselves 😀

Engaging with children and young people is an important part of neighbourhood policing, helping to build positive relationships and understanding between the police and the communities we serve.

A big thank you to all the Cubs and leaders for making us feel so welcome. We had a wonderful evening and look forward to visiting again in the future. 🚓😊
