Happy St Georges Day 2024
Thank you to the 300 people who attended on Sunday to help the district celebrate St Georges Day and to renew our promises. The weather was kind to us, although a tad cold, but we were completing part of the Outdoor 24 challenge. Congratulations to Astrid who was presented with the first Chief Scout Acorn award in the district. We acknowledged all the Chief Scout Award holders from across the district who should be very proud of their achievements.
Sheila also enjoyed her day at Windsor Castle for achieving The Silver Wolf award and Irthlingborough celebrated by attending a service at their local church.
