Amazing day at Windsor celebrating this year’s King’s Scout award recipients

Special mention to Ethan and Jess, two of our adult volunteers - their hard work and determination has paid off, they are role models to all in scouting, an awesome achievement for them both 🏅

Some of our very own Leaders are in Windsor this weekend celebrating earning their King's Scout Award - the highest award in Scouting.

Ethan and Jess have both been through our group from being in Cubs and Scouts and are fantastic role models for the young people in our group!

Over the years they have given a lot to the group, HLS District, Durham County and indeed further afield in West Yorkshire (where Jess currently lives).

A quick side note - Jess will be following in her dad's (Mark) footsteps who is a Queen Scout himself and will be there too!

We can't wait to see all the official photography of tomorrow's parade!

Between now and St Georges Day we will be sharing with you what this year’s Kings Scout Award Recipients have been doing to complete their awards.

Today we say Congratulations to Ethan Cowey of Houghton le Spring District.

Whilst completing his Award Ethan completed his Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.
