1st Robertsbridge Scouts Group needs your help. The group is desperately short of Adult Helpers to assist with the sections weekly meetings. The shortage of adults volunteering has resulted in long waiting lists for Beavers, Cubs and Scout sections. If you have any time and are able to give the local children and young people assistance with Scouting please contact Sheila Rogers, Group Scout Leader on 01580 880312.

Has anyone seen a blue sack barrow dumped around the area, or seen one being used. I ask because a couple of weeks ago the one that belongs to One Stop has been taken and is still missing. If you have seen it or know where it is please tell one of the members of staff.
