Hello there, my name is Samuel. I am 13 years old and love Scouts, it is one of my most favourite things in the whole world!

I am raising funds to go on a once in a lifetime adventure, the World Scout Jamboree 2027 in Poland. It is an absolute privilege to have been selected to represent Medway and the UK on this amazing journey! It is all of my dreams come true.

The World Scout Jamboree is a global event that has been running since 1920 and brings together Scouts from all over the world. Thousands of young people (over 40 000!!) from over 150 countries come together to share cultures, make lifelong friendships and learn from each other.

For me, this isn’t just a trip abroad — it’s a chance to be part of something much bigger.

The total cost of attending this Jamboree is split between me, my district and a group effort involving all 10 of us. Thanks to amazing support from the district, a third of the cost of the trip has already been covered - but I still need to raise £2,400 for the trip. This is a large amount of money, but it covers all travel, insurance, accommodation, training camps leading up to the event, kit and activities whilst we are out there.

I have already made a start fundraising. So far, I have made all sorts of things to sell and have a number of other activities lined up individually and as a group, including the Kent challenge walk, as just one of the many examples!

This is Samuel, working towards his dream (a)nd an adventure of a lifetime) coming true !!

Thank you so much for your support!
