11th Redditch Scout Group

Our Rowan Beavers got physical this week with a special visit from Swipes Tricking Academy to teach them the basics of tricking - jumping, twisting, flipping & more. Looks like brilliant fun - we bet the Beavers slept well after this! #SkillsForLife #physicalfun #ScoutsHW

@warhammer fun for our Eagle Scouts this week. They were focussed & frowny but they definitely enjoyed themselves! #warhammer #scoutshw #SkillsForLife

Taking great pride in their local community, Willow Beavers went litter picking around Headless Cross in the sunshine this week. Well done team! #scoutshw #litterpicking #skillsforlife

A great start to the BH weekend for our Clee & Clent Cubs on Sat - a very fun inflatables swimming session at Abbey Stadium swimming pool Redditch! #skillslife #swimming #scoutshw

Behind the scenes at the Kingfisher Shopping Centre this week for our Rowan Beavers - check out all the security cameras! 😃 Thank you to everyone for making the Beavers feel welcome! #scoutshw #redditch #security

More opportunities for our Eagle Scouts to hone their shooting skills this week. They’re getting really rather good now! #gunsafety #skillsforlife #riflerange #ScoutsHW

Flint & steel time for Clee Cubs to kick off the summer term. Safe firelighting fun with toasted marshmallows as a reward - always a favourite with the Cubs for some reason. 😊🔥 #firesafety #skills #toastedmarshmallows #flintandsteel #scoutshw

Willow Beavers kicked off the new term by welcoming a member of the @BritishArmy . They learned about Emergency Aid including how to get help, what the recovery position is used for and how to deal with cuts, burns and asthma. #firstaidtraining #skillsforlife #ScoutsHW

Wonderful representation from all 6 of our sections for St George’s Day Parade this morning along with the rest of @redditchscouts. And the sun even came out just at photo time. 🌞 #StGeorgesDay #scoutshw #scoutingforlife #scouting

Clee Cubs focussed on their Skaters badge this week, making the most of the lighter evenings by tackling a tricky obstacle course. Reversing a scooter is quite a challenge apparently! #skaterlife #skillsforlife #scoot @ScoutsHW @redditchscouts
