Dwayne Fields, Chief Scout congratulates 2nd Leyland Scout!
I’m incredibly proud that Scouts is helping so many young people in Leyland gain skills for life.
Since opening earlier this year, 2nd Leyland’s THIRD Scout Troop and brand new Explorer Unit have gone from strength to strength. They’ve recruited some fantastic volunteers, engaged local families and members of the community. Most importantly, they’ve created some incredible opportunities for fun, adventure and friendship for young people who live locally.
It’s vital our young people get the encouragement and support they deserve to help them find their place in the world and become the active citizens of the future. I remember as a nine-year-old Cub Scout joining my local group. It meant so much having leaders who believed in me. It gave me the confidence to step up and begin a lifetime of adventure that’s taken me across continents.
If people in Leyland are thinking of volunteering on flexible basis, then we would love to welcome you to the Scouts family too. You’ll make new friends, use your skills and learn new ones. Everyone’s welcome here – all genders, faith (including no faith) and backgrounds.
A huge thank you and well done to the whole team at 2nd Leyland Scout Group. You’re making all the difference to young people’s lives.
Keep up the great work,
Dwayne Fields
Chief Scout
