Looks like the Beavers from Chelmer Village had a great time making seed bombs and helping to grow lots of new plants and flowers

Not a lot of sleep, but a lot of fun! Our Beavers had a great time on their "sleepover" at Airhop last night!

We've had a great day celebrating the young people who have worked hard to achieve an award over the past year - we're really proud of everything they've achieved and wish them luck with their next challenges.

A reminder to all of our volunteers 🙌

06/09/2026

It is with heavy hearts that we have learned that Doris Ketley has "gone home" at the age of 94. We were only recently informed of her passing, which we understand took place late last year.

Doris was a remarkable part of our community, dedicating over 30 years of her life to Scouting in a variety of roles, at County, District and Group levels. Many of you will also fondly remember her as a familiar and beloved face working tirelessly behind the scenes at Chelmsford Gang Show. Her commitment, warmth, and unwavering support touched the lives of countless young people and fellow volunteers.

Our thoughts are with her family, her friends, and everyone who had the privilege of Scouting alongside her. She will be deeply missed, but her incredible legacy within Essex and Chelmsford Scouting will undoubtedly live on.

Members of Horizon Scout Network have been busy! Last night saw the presentation of six Gold Duke of Edinburgh Awards as well as 4 Kings Scouts Awards - the two top awards that can be earned by a Scout. Well done everyone!

Happy birthday, Scouters!

It's our birthday, Scouts! 🎉 🥳 ✨
