Adrian Ramsay, MP for Waveney Valley and Co-Leader of the Green Party, backs call for people to consider volunteering with their local Scout group.

Adrian Ramsay MP was honoured to present Oliver and Cogan from Beccles Bears Explorer Scouts with Young Leader badges on Saturday, which was Founder's Day for the Scouts., He said:

“As a former Cub Scout, I know how special Founder’s Day is for scouting. It was an honour to present Young Leader badges to Oliver and Cogan from Beccles Bears Explorer Scouts. The experiences in scouting are invaluable to young people —teaching teamwork, resilience, and skills that stay with them for life.”

Adrian was attending an event organised by Waveney Valley scouts aimed at recruiting more volunteers for local Scout groups across the area. He echoed calls for people to consider volunteering with their local Scout groups; 

“If you have free time, I urge you to get involved. Volunteers' work in the scouting movement is vital for the next generation of scouts, whether as trustees, helpers, or Scout leaders. The work of volunteers is essential in keeping these groups running and ensuring young people continue to benefit from the Scouting experience.“
