Squirrels are spreading joy across Berkshire! 🐿️

We take a deep dive into the positive effect that Squirrels are having on groups, communities and the adults who care for them at home and in education.

It was all hands on deck at 3rd Upton today. TRH The Prince and Princess of Wales with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis volunteered for #TheBigHelpOut. They lent a hand and got involved with all sorts of building work at the group's meeting place.

TRH The Prince and Princess of Wales with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis all lent a hand today at 3rd Upton for #TheBigHelpOut. Everyone got involved with renovating the Scouts meeting place and received their own #TheBigHelpOut badge.

Really pleased to be working on this partnership with @InmarsatGlobal - two lucky @scouts from @BerkshireScouts & @GLNEScouts are going to Cape Canaveral to see a #satellite launch in February next year

[Berkshire Scouts @BerkshireScouts]

🚀 Amazing to see a Scout from Berkshire selected as one of two winners of this epic competition, run by @InmarsatGlobal and @Scouts.

🚀 Full story - including praise from the legend @astro_timpeake - on our website:

Thank you to all the @scouts for your brilliant entries and congratulations to Simon & Craig. It was extremely difficult to judge - such a high standard. Enjoy that @InmarsatGlobal launch from the Cape! 🚀 #skillsforlife

We recently hosted a Trustees' Workshop, and have just pulled together resources into one place

Check out https://t.co/5axVWnMqjY and share with all of your Scout trustee friends!

[Berkshire Scouts @BerkshireScouts]

Today we welcomed almost 100 trustees from Groups and Districts across the county. It was great to network, share ideas and learn more. We talked about transformation, finance, recruiting trustees, data protection, effective meetings, property and more!

Scout Ambassador @SteveBackshall celebrates the joy of one year of Squirrel 🎂

[Berkshire Scouts @BerkshireScouts]

🐿 15 Squirrels Dreys have opened across Berkshire since the national roll-out of the @scouts newest and youngest section a year ago.

That’s around 180 four-to-six-year-olds learning #SkillsForLife - and we think that’s something worth celebrating!

We’re deeply saddened by the death of Our Patron, HM The Queen. A dedicated supporter of Scouts, Her Majesty has been a peerless role model for our young people. 

Our thoughts are with the Royal Family.
