Sainsbury's Active Kids is Here!
Great Amwell Scout Group is taking part in Sainsbury's Active Kids campaign again. As you know it's a great way for us to get extra equipment - at no cost to the group......
Last year we were able to 'buy' some Tag Rugby Belts. Thank you SO much to everybody who brought in their vouchers - that was brilliant!! We are hoping to do even better this year!
This year's Active Kids campaign (AK12) runs from 15 February to 10 April 2012 when you visit Sainsbury’s stores, petrol stations or shop online. Nectar points can also be turned into Active Kids vouchers too! See nectar.com for details. Plus all vouchers gratefully received from friends, family and work colleagues.
The method of collection is the same as last year; Then just pop your vouchers into the collection box, in the hallway, next time you are down at the HQ.
We are very grateful for your help with our Active Kids collection last year, lets make this year better than ever!
Don't forget there is no limit to the number of vouchers our Group can collect - so please spread the word to all your family, neighbours and work colleagues!
Thank you! |

Welcome to the 1st Great Amwell Scout Group website.
Great Amwell Scouts is located on the edge of Ware in Hertfordshire, we are a really enthusiastic and active group with two Beaver Colonies (6 to 8 years), two Cub Packs (8 to 10½) and a Scout Troop (10½ - 14 years).
We meet on different nights through the week at our HQ on London Road and form part of the nine groups that make up Ware and District Scouts.
Before you start take a look around the front page and familiarise yourself with what is available. Customize the front page to suit yourself and your computer by adjusting the text size using the buttons on the top right hand corner. Then sit back and do what they call surfing. There is lots of information here, but if you can't find what you're looking for drop the webteam an email via the Contact Us page.
GROUP MEMBERS: This is a new website - if you registered on the previous website, you will need to re-register on this site to access the member areas - sorry! |

HRH The Duchess of Cambridge has become Scouting’s newest volunteer and will help at local cub packs and beaver colonies, Clarence House has announced.
The Duchess, who joins 66,000 girls and 40,000 female leaders in Scouting, will help out at groups close to where she lives. Her Royal Highness also hopes to help with activities in other parts of the United Kingdom as opportunity arises.
Flexible volunteering
The announcement comes as a great endorsement of Scouting’s commitment to allow adults to volunteer their time on a flexible basis. The Duchess will help run a variety of activities relevant to her skills and interests. This could include running games, teaching first aid or cooking on campfires.
Chief Scout Bear Grylls gave a delighted reaction to the news: ‘The Duchess has an incredibly busy life, which makes it all the more inspiring that she has chosen to volunteer alongside us.
‘Over the last few years it has been our mission to make it easier for adults who volunteer with us to give as much or as little as they are able – it is how we change our society: many people doing a little bit.’

We are delighted to announce Andrew French has been selected as one of the official torchbearers to join the 8,000 other inspirational people who will carry the Olympic Flame as it journeys across the UK on its way to the Olympic stadium in London.
Andy was selected as a shining example of an unsung hero who does fantastic work in their local community to inspire youth. A GSK employee for 32 years, he has spent 18 years volunteering with young people in numerous Ware community events: “I’m shell shocked and humbled that I’ve been selected from all the other worthy entries for such an honour and cannot say thank you enough. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me and I know that all the clubs and associations I work with will also take pride in being part of this achievement too.” We do, and we are IMMENSELY proud of you Andy - WELL DONE!!! |
