Chinley Scout, Peter Berriman, meeting @BearGrylls at the Queen's Scout awards today after receiving the Chief Scout's Commendation for Meritorious Conduct award. He also met @DwayneFields and enjoyed showing him how to solve a Rubik's cube 😎

Hi @Airfix, do you still do the bulk kits offer for scouting groups who want to have a go with their troops? We last did this with our troop about 5 years ago and they loved it; most had not come across Airfix kits before surprisingly!

I've enjoyed adding battleships and knots to the list of games at https://t.co/OOw8nhauce and I hope leaders, Beavers/Cubs/Scouts/Explorers/Guides etc have fun playing together 😎 Please retweet to share the fun 👍

I've written some simple online games for Scouts and leaders to try out. Each game involves a scouting skill. I've learnt a lot and hope others find it useful. My other game ideas include connect4, battleships etc but do you have any suggestions?

Great online @lichess tournament tonight with our Scouts - I was absolutely thrashed as I kept taking too long to move and ran out of time! - I obviously don't think as fast 😝

A big thank you to everyone at Chinley Cubs @chinleyscouts who raised £130 for the hospice with their ‘Cubs car wash’ and ‘Bob a Job’ fundraising tasks for family and friends! The Cubs visited the hospice to meet staff, find out more about our work and enjoy some activities! 💚

Tonight our Scouts made Dutch ovens in which they cooked anzac biscuits over the rocket stoves they made last term, a very satisfying result 😎

We've submitted an application for funding to #meetandcode #codeEU with a view to providing some coding sessions for cubs and scouts during October code week, fingers crossed 🤞
