Awards and recognition
A message from Bear
It’s so important that we thank and recognise our fellow Scouts for their incredible service. These are the shining lights who make Scouts possible.
Most of us in Scouts look for, and expect, no reward. But a timely word of thanks is always appreciated and can work wonders.
I convey my congratulations to all those that have been recognised and thank you for all the hard work you have given to Scouting.
