MALVERN Wells Scout Group was delighted to receive a £500 donation which will fund the lease of their scout hut for the next decade.
The money was presented by Coun Chris O’Donnell last week and will help to ensure the future of the thriving group by paying for the building on Assarts Lane.
The youngsters have also been fund-raising in a bid to collect £7,000 for their trip in July were they will join 2,000 scouts at the International Jamborette in Haarlem, in the Netherlands.
Residents have been invited to support their efforts during a fund-raising event on Saturday (March 14) where they will be bag packing at Morrisons.
The Scout Troop currently has a waiting list but the group still has places in the Cub Pack for children between eight and ten-years-old.
Call cub leader Richard Vakis on 07716 345300 or e-mail [email protected] for more information.
