Co-op Local Community Fund Success
A huge thanks to all customers and members @coopuk for including us in their Local Community Fund. We are super pleased to announce that the £1,584.94 we have been awarded added to other funds received will allow us to proceed with purchasing new tents.
Tents are the starting point for an adventure and these new tents will enable our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts to have loads of adventures for years to come. #TheCoopWay
New tent donations
Exciting news about our new tent appeal!
Today we received two donations; £379.43 from DM Thomas Foundation for Young People and £209.53 from the Hilton Avisford Park Community Fund.

These donations, together with other donations recently received and a grant application we are waiting to hear the outcome of will be used to replace our six Vango tents ready for use by the Beavers, Cubs and Scouts this summer.
