Help with fund raising
In common with all other Scout groups, we rely on fund raising to provide and maintain the building, provide the equipment for all the activities enjoyed by the Sections. Unlike most other Scout Groups, we also the costs associated with maintaining the Barton Island water activity base, and the boats, kayaks and safety equipment.
Some fund raising activities we have been organising...
Beeston Picnic in the Park
Beeston Race Night
If you would like to help with any of our current fund raising activities, or have ideas for one you would like to run then please get in touch.
Special skills assistance
The group has several buildings to maintain as well as an island, several boats, out-board engines, kayaks and miscellaneous other bits of equipment and facilities. In addition the Group runs various outdoor activities, both water and land based.
