  • Scout Christmas Post 2010 - a fabulous result!
    As a result of all the efforts put in by members, parents, Leaders and Executive members the Group has raised £947.65 from the sale of stamps and the delivery of cards to the Priory Vale area. 
     
    The money will help with Group running costs, subsidising activites and outings as well as our long term of goal of having our own hut somewhere in the Priory Vale area.
     
    The scouts in Swindon delivered over 122,000 cards. It was a record year for the Group selling 5256 stamps (an increase of 855 on last year) and delivering approximately 4500 cards.
     
    WELL DONE AND THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK PART!
