This is the 2nd BB painting in the train station - definitely brightening up the station! Huge thanks to Gemma at Thurso Station for supporting and welcoming 1st Thurso! @scotrail @networkrail

This morning Viscount Thurso unveiled a special painting at Thurso Railway Station commemorating the BBs 140th Anniversary! The painting, was done by the young people that attend 1st Thurso - well done all!

There will be a special ceremony at Thurso railway station at 10.45am tomorrow when one of 1st Thursos young people will come in on the train and hand the #140Baton to Viscount Thurso, who will unveil a painting that will stay permanently at the station! @scotrail #Thurso

Huge thanks to @INVAirport for allowing us to do the handover on the tarmac next to the aircraft and to the @easyjet captain for taking time to join us for a photo and talking to us in an already tight schedule! #invernessairport #Inverness #easyjet #Scotland #Thurso

1st Thurso have arrived back in the UK after an epic trip around the USA! 🇺🇸 This evening, the #140Baton was handed over to Thurso once they landed into Inverness! 🛩 Our secretary, Michael and VP Neil, were on hand to hand over the baton and meet them off their plane! 👋

The baton enjoyed amazing views of Inverness and The Black Isle! #boysbrigade #learngrowdiscover #bbadventure #Inverness #kessockbridge #A9 #bearscotland

Today, the #140Baton scaled new heights on its journey in the Highlands! Today the baton joined our very own Duncan, who works for @BEAR_Scotland and was carrying out maintenance tasks 70 meters up at the very top of the Kessock Bridge!

It was a cracking day on the Isle of Skye today, even better to be supporting the new leaders of 1st Isle of Skye BBGA with their Training! We are thrilled to be launching a new BB group in the Highlands - the first in Scotland since 2019! #learngrowdiscover #bbadventure

Today, the leadership team are undertaking their Youth Leader Training with the help of Michael, Lynn, Development Worker Fiona Spooner, and Leader Development Manager Alan Hunter

The #140Baton has made a very special visit to the Isle of Skye to meet with leaders from our newest group!! Introducing 1st Isle of Skye 🥳🎉 We are delighted that the BBs newest group will be opening very soon!

Young people and leaders from 1st Narin will then walk the Baton back to Nairn throughout Saturday 🚶🚶‍♀️ The Batons message will then be read out during the 10.30am service on Sunday 25th February at Nairn Old Parish Church. Again, all welcome!

This Saturday, 24th February, we will be welcoming the North Scottish Area Boys' Brigade #140Baton to the Highlands! The Baton, containing a message from H. M. The King and the North Scottish President is making its way round all BB groups in the North of Scotland!

@ShawBayley Great to hear about your connections to The Boys Brigade and indeed the Highlands! ⚓

I am a former member of the 42nd Edinburgh Company. My late father was the Captain of the Company at Fort George (Nairn/Ardersier) @bb_highland about 1968.

It was really good for the young people to hear about politics and how they can get involved locally. Thanks to Drew, for taking time out to visit during UK Parliament Week! #UKPW #BoysBrigade #LearnGrowDiscover

- including a request for a 4 day school week! And they found out he was an ex BB member himself! After that, he got involved with a gym session and also challenged a few of the younger boys at table tennis.

It's UK Parliament Week! Last night @drewhendrySNP, MP for Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey went along to 12th Inverness to speak to the Company Section as part of UK Parliament Week. He spent a bit of time talking about life as an MP and answered lots of questions
