2nd Abingdon Scout Group

Posted 1 week ago

***UPDATE***
Youth services including Scouts and Guides are deemed “essential” and are unaffected by the change today as long as we comply with the enhanced safety measures we have put in place.
*****
So, I expect some of you are wondering what today’s announcement means for our return to scouting. The answer is we don’t know yet. Scouts UK is working with the National Youth Agency and DCMS to assess the impact. Meanwhile we won’t send out the small group allocations in case anything changes this week. Thanks for your patience. ... See MoreSee Less

2nd Abingdon Scout Group is feeling fantastic.

We have received our approval to restart face-to-face scouting! Details will be coming next week. All sections will restart from 21st Sept but your child may not be meeting that week since we we will be operating in small groups of between 10 and 12. Alongside our face-to-face meetings we will be providing activities to do at home for all sections.
Please bear with us as we get used to a new scouting normal and read the information that comes to you VERY carefully. Sections won’t be operating like school so please don’t assume anything. For now 2m distancing will be required in all sections and Scouts (not Beavers or Cubs) will need to bring a face covering with them to meetings. All of this will be explained in your section-specific communications next week.
We are looking forward to seeing you again! ... See MoreSee Less
