Den Day – Save the Children (Fri 16th June)
We are again supporting Save the Children Den Day and we are asking scouts to build “DENS” (Shelters, bivvys, temporary shelters) on Friday 16th June and then sleep in them overnight.

We are also asking scouts to be sponsored so we can raise even more money for the cause, please use the attached sponsor form.
