Our friends in America have written about the day we spent with the @Orioles. This was an important part of experiencing US culture. As we plan our journey to @2023wsjkorea what cultural events should we think about for South Korea? #UK25WSJ #DrawYourDream blog.scoutingmagazine.org/20…

What a lovely gesture from the young members of #WSJ #UKUnit49💙
UKUnit49 (@UKUnit49) profile pictureUKUnit49@UKUnit4924 Nov 2019
After 2 years they finally managed to silence the unit leaders. We were presented with memory boxes this morning & the most touching part is that they contained messages from all 36 of our young members. THANK YOU for this wonderful surprise.

It’s the leaders opportunity to explain the impact of world scout Jamboree on themselves and their unit. Cheshire is so lucky to have fantastic adults ready to give the time to young people.
