Volunteers and Trustees Needed
As a large and active group, we desperately need volunteers across all sections and for our Trustee team. If you can spare even a couple of hours a month, it makes a huge difference. Please get in touch with Chris Rodaway (info@1stholgatescoutgroup.org.uk) for a chat – we are a friendly and welcoming bunch!
