⚜️🎉 **HEDON SCOUT GROUP – 100 YEARS OF ADVENTURE!** 🎉⚜️

Were you once a Beaver, Cub, Scout, Explorer or Leader at Hedon Scout Group, formerly known as 1st Augustine's (Hedon)? WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! 💙💚

In 2027, Hedon Scout Group will be celebrating an incredible 100 YEARS of Scouting (1927–2027), and we're hoping to take a trip down memory lane! 🕰️

Over the last century, generations of young people and volunteers have made memories, learnt skills, formed friendships and enjoyed adventures through Scouting in Hedon.

We would love to hear from **past members, leaders, volunteers and anyone with a connection to the Group**, whether you knew us as **1st Augustine's (Hedon) or Hedon Scout Group**, no matter how long ago you were involved!

📸 Do you have any old photographs?

🏕️ Can you remember any memorable camps, trips or adventures?

🏅 Have you kept any old badges, neckers, uniforms, certificates or other Scouting memorabilia?

😂 Do you have any funny stories or unforgettable memories from your time with us?

📖 Do you know anything about the history of Hedon Scout Group or the people who helped make it what it is today?

We would love you to share your stories and photographs with us as we piece together 100 years of Hedon Scouting history.

We're hoping to bring together a collection of memories and memorabilia to showcase as part of our centenary celebrations in 2027.

🏅 5 Years of Service! 🏅

At yesterday's South Holderness District AGM, I had the pleasure of presenting Richard Terence West with his Chief Scout's 5 Years Service Award! 👏

Richard does a fantastic job as GLV at Hedon Scout Group, and I'm particularly grateful that he takes care of all the boring GLV jobs so I can concentrate on the fun ones! 😂🤣

All jokes aside, thank you, Richard, for your dedication, hard work and everything you do for Hedon Scout Group. Your contribution really is appreciated!

Here's to the next 5 years… I'll leave the paperwork with you! 😉⚜️

💜 Meet Your New District Lead Volunteer! 💜

Well, this is me… apparently in charge! 😂

Hi everyone! 👋
I'm Laura, and I'm excited (and possibly slightly terrified!) to introduce myself as the new District Lead Volunteer for South Holderness Scouts!

Some of you will already know me from my roles as Group Lead Volunteer and Akela at Hedon Scout Group. For those who don't, I'm usually the one juggling about 101 things, coming up with crazy ideas and somehow convincing other volunteers to join in! 🤣

I'm incredibly passionate about Scouting and the opportunities it gives young people. I'm a firm believer that Scouting should be full of adventure, laughter, friendship, a place to belong and, most importantly, skills for life.

My aim is to bring our District together, support our fantastic volunteers, encourage our young people to achieve their potential and make South Holderness a District we're all proud to be part of.

I'm looking forward to visiting our groups, getting to know everyone, sharing ideas and hopefully bringing a few new adventures to the District along the way.

I certainly don't have all the answers, but I'm always happy to listen, learn and give things a go. My door is always open, and I genuinely want to hear your ideas.

And judging by this photo, I clearly can't be trusted to behave myself… so there's never going to be a dull moment! 😂

Here's to the next chapter for South Holderness Scouts. Let's make it a good one! 💜⚜️

Yours in Scouting,
Laura
