πŸ“’ Event Update – Father's Day BBQ

Unfortunately, we have taken the decision to cancel our Father's Day BBQ fundraiser scheduled for Saturday 20th June.

Whilst we were looking forward to welcoming families for a fun-filled event, the number of advance bookings received means we would be unable to deliver the event in a way that would make it successful as a fundraiser for our International Expeditions.

We would like to thank everyone who shared our posts, supported the event and booked places.

The fundraising journey continues, and we have plenty more events planned as our young people and volunteers work towards their international expeditions to Poland, North America and Kenya in 2027.

πŸ’œ If you would still like to support the participants, donations can be made here:

πŸ‘€ Keep an eye on our page over the coming weeks as we announce our next fundraising events, fundraising challenges and opportunities to support our young people.

Thank you for your continued support. Together, we're helping local young people access life-changing international opportunities. 🌍

🌟 Supporter Spotlight – Jimmy's Farm & Wildlife Park 🌟

A huge thank you to Jimmy's Farm & Wildlife Park for their generous donation of entry tickets to support our International Expeditions fundraising campaign.

These fantastic tickets will be featured in our fundraising raffles, helping us raise vital funds for local young people and volunteers from Tendring who are preparing for international Scouting expeditions in 2027.

Our participants are fundraising towards opportunities in Poland, North America and Kenya, where they will develop confidence, resilience, leadership skills and global awareness through adventure, cultural exchange and community service. Alongside this, they continue to volunteer each week within local Scout groups, supporting younger members through the Young Leader Programme.

Support from organisations such as Jimmy's Farm & Wildlife Park helps make these life-changing opportunities more accessible and allows us to maximise the impact of our fundraising events.

πŸ’œ Thank you once again for your generosity and support of local young people.

Meet the Participants - Alex πŸ‡΅πŸ‡±

From starting in Beavers to now representing Essex on an international stage, Alex’s Scouting journey is about to reach an incredible milestone.

The World Scout Jamboree is one of the largest youth events in the world, bringing together tens of thousands of Scouts from across the globe for two weeks of adventure, cultural exchange and international friendship.

As part of the Essex contingent, Alex will represent both Tendring and the UK while developing confidence, resilience, leadership skills and global awareness through this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

To make this possible, participants are working hard to raise funds through community events, raffles and fundraising activities across Tendring.

If you would like to support Alex and the other participants on their international journey, donations can be made here:

🌍 Meet the Participants – Next up, Luke!

In 2027, Luke will take part in an expedition across the USA and Canada, including time at a Scouts America summer camp and a wilderness adventure involving hiking and canoeing in remote environments.

This opportunity reflects years of dedication to Scouting and volunteering within the local community - and now Luke has the chance to represent Tendring on an international stage.

To take part, Luke must raise funds towards the cost of travel, accommodation, training and the expedition programme.

If you would like to support Luke and the other participants from Tendring, you can donate here:
