We’re looking for a new adult helper to join our Beavers section 🦫(6-8 year olds)

If you’re someone who can get through to kids, keep things positive, and also wants to have fun, you’d be a fantastic fit. Beavers is all about games, crafts, teamwork, outdoor adventures and building confidence — and it’s genuinely one of the most rewarding (and funniest) parts of the week.

When & where:
📅 Tuesdays, 6.30–7.30pm
📍 Glamis Scout Hut (next to the primary school), Glamis, Forfar

✅ Full support from the team
✅ Training is online through Scouts
✅ PVG required (applied for through Scouts)

You don’t need to be an expert — just friendly, reliable, and up for getting stuck in.

If you’re interested (or just want a chat about what it involves), drop us a message or comment below 😊

Kitchen Update – Thank You! 👷‍♀️🔧

A quick update on the kitchen project at the 61st Glamis Scouts Hut, and a big thank you to everyone who has helped us get this far. The progress has been fantastic and it’s been a real community effort.

✅ We were incredibly lucky to receive funding from an anonymous donor in the village, which allowed us to get the project started. Glamis Construction & Management laid the foundations and built the outer shell of the new kitchen extension — thank you for the great work.

✅ We then needed urgent repairs to the roof over the toilet block, and Glamis and Area Community Council (GAACT) kindly provided emergency funding to make that happen. GAACT also generously supplied materials to clad the outside of the new build and replace the cladding on the toilet block too.

✅ A huge thanks to Des and everyone who helped remove the old cladding and fit the new — that’s a big job and it’ll keep us watertight for years to come.

✅ Pert Bruce Construction Ltd very kindly gifted us 24 plasterboard sheets, and Des and Jon learned some new skills getting those up (including taping plasterboard!).

✅ Sarah sourced us a kitchen from Airlie Hall, and we’re very grateful to the Directors of Airlie Hall for gifting it to us. The Aberbrothock Skea Trust funded some of the kitchen too!

✅ Iain installed the kitchen, and Whittons Flooring Ltd generously donated and fitted the flooring — thank you!

✅ And a big thank you to MAC Electricians for their support with the electrics — much appreciated.

It’s been a brilliant team effort and we’re really grateful to everyone who has donated materials, time, skills, and support to help make this happen. The kitchen is going to make a huge difference for our young people and the running of the Hut.

What have our young people at 61st Glamis Scouts been up to recently? 🤔

We might have been a bit quiet on here, but the adventure definitely hasn’t stopped!

Over the past few weeks we’ve been:

🎄 Singing Christmas songs for residents at a local older persons’ home

🧹 Litter picking around our local area (working towards our Community Impact badge)

🍳 Cooking outdoors in our outdoor kitchen

🔥 Having campfires and belting out campfire songs

🚀 Learning about space and exploring what it means to be without gravity

🎨 Getting creative with crafts and modelling

🧗‍♀️ Climbing and really pushing ourselves to the limit

From our Squirrels to our Scouts, our young people have pushed themselves, inspired us, and most importantly had a lot of fun. The New Year brings even more adventure! 🌟
