We were joined by two new volunteers as well, and what an awesome couple they are, instantly became members of our family.๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘งโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ

Busy but fun day today at the camp.
One of our veteran's nephews & his mates joined us and laid more stone chippings around the camp fire, for safety and they did a fantastic job, thank you guys!!
We rewarded them with some great scran (scoff, grub, food or whatever you know it as๐Ÿซก) and a bit of BB gun shooting & axe throwing in our developing 'range'

Yesterday a few of us was at the camp doing some little jobs, mainly the outdoor lighting, that joins up 2 other projects, 'The Bunker' (classroom & Junior Rangers HQ) and the bridge. All 3 of these projects were overseen by 2 of our members, 1 veteran and the other, a veteran friend. They talked about, planned and executed it all fantastically and it looks great.๐Ÿ’ก
We are not just about veterans, we have (and welcome more) friends that have not served, supporters and all members of the community. Our ethos is about working together, supporting each other, using nature & the outdoors as the catalyst for health & wellbeing.
Feel free to join us on this amazing journey on Saturday mornings to get involved in our voluntary work.
