Good luck to our Jubilee campsite wardens, Simon and Stephen who are taking on a 26mile Mighty Hike in Dorset today in aid of @macmillancancer in memory of former warden Paul Willicombe. It's not too late to make a donation to their fundraising cause justgiving.com/team/welshscou…

It was an honour to see Gill Clay awarded the Bronze Wolf for outstanding service to International Scouting. Gill’s award was number 399 - an award that is given to an exceptional few. So well deserved.

A sad moment as Matt says a few words in his final moments as The Scout Association Chief Executive. Thank you @matthyde for leading us so brilliantly over the last 11 years - some highs and some lows but you have been such a role model

So proud to hear Freya (one of our own) tell us about her role as Youth Advocate and how she has had the opportunity to develop more #skillsforlife @ScoutsCymru @scouts

The volunteers who help us deliver the amazing youth programme are important. We need more good leaders and supporters if we are going to help more young people achieve #skillsforlife

75% of our young people say they make choices about their Scouting experience #SkillsforLife
