We will remember them.

As you may or may not have seen, the save the date for Essex Weekend has been published.

The event is a great weekend where scouters can come along, with their families, and experience the activities for themselves.

It would be great to see as many of Billericay and Wickford there as possible.

Don’t forget to complete DBS checks beforehand for any adults attending - you can add them to your group as “non member-needs disclosure”.

You can order The Grumpy Old Stone for free on Scout Store.
