We are planning on restarting at the Scout Hut week during week commencing 10th January 2022. Please do not attend if anyone in your household has symptoms of Covid. To ease congestion in the cloakroom please can all young people leave their coats with their parents. We will be keeping the front and side fire exit doors open to assist with ventilation and we have hand gels for all people to use. All adults entering the building will be required to wear a face covering.

Update to above, Beavers and Cubs will be in the hut w/c 10th Jan. Scouts will return a week later on 17th January.

Cubs are invited to attend a Day of Adventures at Broadstone Warren Scout Activity Centre. The days are funded jointly by DEFRA & The Lottery Fund and so the only cost to parents will be travel to the centre and a packed lunch for your Cub. We have 2 dates available to us – the 26th and 27th March. Please choose the day you would like to attend and complete the OSM invite. Places are limited so please only sign up if you are sure you can attend

Cubs and Scouts across Brighton & Hove are invited to participate in the District Chess Tournament on Saturday 22nd January 2021 at 30th Brighton Scout HQ. There are separate trophies for Cubs and Scouts. Details and invites have been sent via OSM.

With the discovery of the new Covid variant and an increase in cases locally, especially among young people, we have decided to cancel the last meetings of this term. This does unfortunately mean that there will be no Christmas parties for any of the sections and we won’t get to wish them a Merry Christmas.   

We have decided that the risk of one of our volunteers or young people catching Covid this close to Christmas is not worth the risk.

At the moment we are still planning on restarting face to face in January. Our first meetings of the year will commence on Monday 10th January 2022.

From all the Leaders, I would like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas and a great New Year.

All Sections will be starting back from Monday 13th September. We will hold as many of the section meetings as possible outside. If we are in the hut, while Covid cases remain at their current level, we are asking parents and carers not to enter the building. If you need to speak to one of the Leaders please let them know via email. Beavers, Cubs and Scouts will enter the hut via the main front doors and will leave via the fire exit on the side of the building. Please remind them to use the hand gel provided (or they can bring their own). Please do not attend if you have any symptoms of Covid or if you have been in contact with anyone with Covid over the previous 10 days.

Beaver, Cub and Scout parents can create an account on MyScout/OSM. The account will show you all the events your Beaver , Cub or Scout has been invited to. It will show all the details of the event so you don’t have to keep looking back for the original email invitation. To create the account, find one of our email invitations. Click on the link for the event and in the top right hand corner you will see the word Account. Click on this and you will be able to create your own account. You will still get the emails but you will be able to see what you have signed up for and make changes to your bookings.

One of the requirement for the Chief Scout Bronze, Silver Award and Gold Awards is the Personal Challenge Award. More details can be found here – Cub Personal Challenge.  

There is a booklet available that can be used to record your personal challenge
