WOW! What a cracking weekend… unfortunately that is the Carnival, Rally and Copythorne 5/10k Run over for 2023 But what an amazing weekend it was! I hope you all don’t mind but I just wanted to comment on behalf of Stanley’s Own Scout Group. Thank you to everybody that came and supported the event, we …
Well done to the scouts who took part in the carnival weekend, I am not sure what happened with the judging this year but despite the best efforts of the troop this year’s spoils went to The guides – although it was a great float and worthy winners! We must try a little harder I …
Our thanks to Doreen and Charlie Whitehorn who collected £153.52 for our Group by putting a collection box on their gate whilst their wonderful Christmas lights adorned their garden during December. I am sure that it brightened up many people’s evenings when going past their house and it certainly did me as I am lucky …

Our first report this month comes from Redbridge Fire Station which the pack visited at the end of September. Obviously, the biggest worry when you turn up at a fire station with a Cub pack is will the firemen be there? Thankfully they were not out on a shout and were more than happy to …
Hi, I’m Will and I’m in Group ‘Star Lord’ for Project 23: the Hampshire marvellous European road trip. I am writing about the recent Trek Cart pull we all did to raise money for WSJ/ P23. After months of planning, we all got together on the hottest weekend of the year so far. We set …
We are pleased the exams are over and we are back to full Explorer activity. We had an excellent cycle ride from Fritham. George planned a route on tracks and we all stopped for a lemonade before returning… it was great fun. The next week we headed out to Andrew’s Mare pond near Stoney Cross. …
