Christmas is approaching and Squirrels, Cubs, Beavers Scouts and Explorers from across Torfaen attended the annual Christingle service at Holy Trinity church in Pontnewydd. The church was packed and young people lit Christingles they had made in their weekly sessions, sung Christmas songs as well as having a game of "pin the item on the orange". Groups all have Christmas activities planned before they finish for the festive break.

We couldn't be more proud of Elliot and Finn for representing Scouts Cymru at the London Remembrance Parade on the weekend, they were spectacular, da iawn both!

Wonderful honour! Two Cwmbran brothers were chosen to be among a group of 15 scouts from across Wales to take part in London’s Remembrance Sunday parade.

Elliot Hopkins, 17, and Finley Hopkins, 15, are members of the FreeSpirit Explorer Scout Unit in Coed Eva, and also volunteer at the 1st Pontnewydd Scouts.

Kerry Hopkins, their mum, said: “They both applied and gave their thoughts on the importance of the annual Remembrance and were lucky enough to be both selected to represent Welsh Scouting. We’re all extremely proud of them

"It was an unforgettable experience. The amount of service men and women was such a spine-tingling moment.

“They haven't missed a Pontnewydd parade in eight years (apart from covid restrictions) and to march with other scouts from Wales will be a moment I am sure they won't forget in a hurry."

Being a trustee is an important role in Scouts, helping to keep our activities safe, keep huts/land useable and supporting the volunteers to do what they do best. We're always looking for more trustees, could you join us? 🫵
