16 Explorers spent two nights under shelters that they built themselves, to earn the Survival Skills activity badge. Thanks @RhyddC for the opportunity and for leaving loads of freshly cut foliage to build shelters out of.

We’re deeply saddened by the death of Our Patron, HM The Queen. A dedicated supporter of Scouts, Her Majesty has been a peerless role model for our young people.  Our thoughts are with the Royal Family. scouts.org.uk/remembering-th…

Nearly there. #WtW22 #iScout #EverydayAdventure

We have made it over the crags and today, day 6, we are heading through Carlisle. #WtW22 #iScout #EverydayAdventure #NotTooMuchRainSoFar

The leaders are having a lovely relaxing time.

Started off today where we left off yesterday in Heddon on the Wall and the first bit of Wall we have seen. Cooler today, which is nice. We'll see how much rain we get later. #WtW22 #IScout #EverydayAdventure

First day of walking Hadrian's Wall yesterday. We got to have a hot lunch in Newcastle and the rest of the walking was pretty hot too. #WtW22

Well done to members of @RedditchESU and @1stAstwoodBank whose participation in the #RemembranceSunday parade in #AstwoodBank was featured by @bbcmtd. We are proud of #Scouts across the District who paid their respects today fb.watch/9h7Rj9K4sH/
