Thank you to all who supported our plant sale over the weekend of 13th / 14th July. We took almost £2,000 a portion of which has been donated to the Northwood Live at Home Scheme and the balance will be used to buy a specific item of equipment for 1st Northwood – details later!

To the many hundreds of shoppers who made our Grand Jumble Sale on Saturday a great success, securing funding to provide first class Scouting at 1st Northwood for another year, thank you.

The Beavers have had a very busy time this term.
They have completed their International badge and

how difficult it is to push a wheelchair up steps,
