15th Nottingham Scouts

20/12/2024

Despite searching far and wide for an experienced Scouting volunteer to help us to run our young people especially in the Beaver and Cub Section, we are unfortunately no further forward.
We all need to be positive for our young people, and hope that we can reach out and find someone in the New Year so that we can resume ASAP, and we will keep you posted on any developments.

In the meantime, we all wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year...enjoy your festivities!!

Just to confirm that we are unable to meet until we find a suitable (qualified) female Scout Leader, which we may hopefully find when the Nottingham University students (re)start very soon.
I have put a sign on the front gate for now, just in case anyone doesn't get this FB message.
We will keep you posted hopefully with good news soon!

We need to urgently inform you that forthcoming Scout meetings are on hold for now as the ratio of Leaders and Scouts is too high due to a reduced number of volunteer availability. We are urgently requiring a female leader with Scouting experience to balance our leadership.
We are really hoping to recruit again when new students arrive soon, so we will keep you posted on developments so please keep a look out here for updates. I will put a sign out on the Scout front gate, but please pass this message on to any parents you know that we unfortunately won't be there tomorrow night as planned.
