Good luck today to everyone who is collecting their GCSE results . I hope you get what you want/need. If you don't, remember that although it may feel like it, its not the end of the world.
Strive for progress not perfection.
Our doors are always open to talk!

@porksmith hey Matt, love your work, don't suppose you fancy coming along to support a Scout event at Bromham at some point in the future do you? I will make sure Ray Purchase is not there...

Just to let you all know that we are currently 4 days away from landing at Bromham for the Unit 17 Selection weekend.

The process included having over half of our selection team being in their teens (keeping this #YouthShaped), all bar 1 attended a Jamboree, a mix of adult leaders and roles within the County, as well as diverse group such as members of the LGBT+ community, for example.

For the last fortnight, a small dedicated team have been interviewing Bedfordshire leaders for the Jamboree in Korea 2023. It's been difficult, as there has been many great applications, conducted both in person and over Zoom 😀⚜️
