Remembrance Day

You could make Scouting history by designing a permanent memorial to remember all who have given service to Scouting and honour members who have suffered through conflict.
The Scouting Memorial project, set up by a team of volunteers from Birmingham Scout County, is a fundraising drive to create a Scouting Memorial in Staffordshire at the National Memorial Arboretum, the UK’s year-round centre of remembrance.  Details including a design brief can be found here, the competition closes on 6th December.
Anyone that is involved or affiliated with scouting can enter, whether you are a young person, leader, parent, supporter or ex-member, we want this to be a truly inclusive project.

Kings Somborne Remembers

On Remembrance Sunday the Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers and Leaders from Kings Somborne were joined at the war memorial on the green outside the church by members of the local British Legion, 25 members of the Army Air Corp from Middle Wallop and members of the public.

It was a moving ceremony which took place in fine sunny weather.

After the two minutes silence most people attended the church service; it was a memorable day

Many hundreds of Romsey Scouts across the District paid their respects yesterday in Romsey and the surrounding villages.
