WSJ 2019 Barking & Dagenahm Scouts

Donation protected
We am very proud to be able to announce that three of our young people from Barking and Dagenham have been selected to attend the 24th World Scout Jamboree in 2019. This is to be jointly hosted by the Boy Scouts of America, Scouts of Canada and the Scout Association of Mexico, with the Jamboree taking place in the Summer of 2019 in West Virginia, USA.

They are part of a group of 36 young people representing Greater London North East (Unit 23), and will be working together to raise over £3,800 each over the next 18 months. The fee will contribute to their attendance at the event but also contributes to Scouts from other less fortunate countries allowing them to attend, supporting the aim of the Jamboree ‘Unlock a New World’.

The World Scout Jamboree is a unique, international adventure shaped by young people with the key themes being Friendship, Experience and Adventure. It is about Scouts from across the world, coming to spend time together, to have fun, and to look at issues that are important to everybody, encouraging them to grow and development as leaders, life-long learners, and have a positive impact on the global and their local communities.

They are planning various fundraising events and activities, and as a District we are working hard to help them achieve their goal.

If you can help us in any way; that support and encouragement would be greatly appreciated. 

For further details or to discuss ways in which you can help us please feel free to contact me at dc@barking-dagenham-scouts.org.uk

With your help, support and commitment we can change the lives of our participants forever, and in doing so contribute to helping change local, national and international communities now and well into the future.
