The town’s Rainbow, Brownies, Guides and Ranger units have been visibly upholding their oath, to serve the community and help others.

The 3rd Haywards Heath Guides have joined with the Haywards Heath Lions Club to raise funds for local causes for the past 15 years.

Patients at the Princess Royal Hospital benefitted from the singing of carols by the 9th Haywards Heath Guide Unit and the 4th Haywards Heath Brownie Unit.

Handmade gifts are also made by the Brownies, Guides and unit volunteer leaders to be given to the patients.

Some good deeds were not as visible. The 3rd Haywards Heath Ranger Unit decided to gather the much needed items for others who live outside of the UK through the Shoebox Appeal.

Their efforts encouraged others and a total of 25 shoeboxes were donated.

The Guides, Rainbows, Brownies and Ranger units also put together a nativity play to raise money for the charity, Jigsaw.

At the cheque presentation ceremony, Carolyn Steer of Jigsaw, was given £345. The girls and the volunteers attended the event.
