Congratulations to everyone in Berkshire - Numbers up again for 2008

The fabulous outcome of the Centenary Year is that there are now even more young people across Berkshire enjoying the great adventure of Scouting.  The 2008 census shows that the number of young people aged 6 to 18 is up in 10 Districts with numbers more or less the same in the other District.  Overall numbers are up by 3% giving a total number of young people of 6,304 together with 1443 Adult Volunteers. That is a grand total of  7747. more

Partnerships with Scouting Serving the Community

On Saturday 19 April 2008 we are holding a Forum on ‘Partnerships with Scouting Serving the Community’. It provides an opportunity to explore together how we can build partnerships to help serve all young people within our communities. Please register your interest in participating in the forum here.

 The Forum will address the ways in which the adventure, fun and challenge of Scouting can be used to engage with young people who currently are not involved in community-based youth programmes. Delegates will include educationalists, community leaders and youth agencies. The Forum will provide an opportunity to hear about initiatives underway to deliver Scouting in different ways. There is no charge to participate in the forum. more
