It’s safe to say that the last 12 months have been very different for us all, which has seen us having to face some challenging situations and living a very different way of life. It also saw a temporary halt on face-to-face Scouting, although it didn’t bring our hardworking volunteers to a halt!

During that time, they’ve been busy (and successfully) applying for grants to complete the refurbishment of our HQ and surrounding grounds, as well as adapting our weekly Sectional meetings to allow our Young People to meet online – and more recently getting everything in to place to allow us all to safely return to face-to-face activities.

Save the date!

As such, we’d like to cordially invite you to this years 1st Ince and Elton Scout Group AGM which will be held on Wednesday 23rd June 2021 at 7:30pm.

Whilst things are heading in the right direction with regards to easing of lockdown restrictions, there are still limits in place on how many people can meet for gatherings. Therefore, this year’s AGM will once again be a “virtual” event that will be hosted online (for the second, and hopefully last time).

Details of how to join the meeting and the key documents for the evening will be shared in the next couple of weeks.

Part of the AGM is the election of the new Executive Committee for the coming year. This committee helps the Group Scout Leader in managing the Group and making sure that it has the resources to help deliver amazing Scouting in the local community.
