In the words of 1st Bridlington Scouts they are “the group that says can do”.We’re proud to include 1st Bridlington Scouts as part of our clean-up competition. These dedicated Scouts have committed themselves to various projects across the area and even cleaned up during their six week holidays!
Where do we start? This group has worked with the Salvation Army preparing and cooking meals, helping those in need; organising a dog show from start to finish for the local community and has made pancakes for their local Allotment Association and the church.The Scout Group’s work with Hilderthorpe Allotment Association saw them revive a plot of derelict land and make high quality signs, after vandalism had occured. This group’s on-going effort really is outstanding. They’ve managed a charity shop, whilst staff were taking a much needed break and even built a wildlife pond for the local people to enjoy.
In addition,1st Bridlington Scout Group has a long term commitment to cleaning projects across Bridlington, to make the area a nicer a place to live and visit.
Scout leader, David Butland said: “We are an incredibly community focused group and enjoy undertaking new challenges, especially those which benefit the local community.
“All of our Scouts love to help and are constantly completing activities in their spare time."
David concluded, “1st Bridlington Scouts put a lot of time and effort into the community and the community is very grateful but if we could win the £500 from WD-40, that would be a real boost to our Scout group.”
