Welcome Back – New Term, New Programme, and Summer Camp Photos!

We’re looking forward to welcoming all our Scouts back on Monday as we kick off a brand‑new term. As mentioned in our previous update, everything is now in place for a smooth start including the full programme and all of our Summer Camp photos.

📅 Autumn Term Programme Now Live

The term programme has now been uploaded and is ready to view or download. You can find it on the Programme page using the link below:

This will give you a clear overview of what’s planned each week and any kit your Scout may need, Any changes during the term will be communicated via the blog.

📸 Summer Camp 2026 Photos Uploaded

All of the photos from Summer Camp 2026 are now available online. If you’d like to browse or download them, they’re on the Summer Camp page here:

There are some brilliant moments in there smiles, challenges, campfires, and memories we hope will stay with the Scouts for years.

💷 Subs for the New Term

As we begin the new term, we do need to update parents regarding subs.

Due to ongoing increases in costs, termly subs will now be £50 per term, payable directly to the Scout bank account.

We understand this is a significant amount, so we are also offering a monthly standing order option:

  • £12 per month
  • Saves £6 per year compared to paying termly
  • Set up by parents directly with their bank

If you choose to pay monthly, please drop us an email at hilton.scouts@gmail.com so we can note it on our records.

If you need the bank details, email the same address and we’ll send them across.

Please reference your child’s surname and initial with all payments.

👋 See You Monday

We’re excited to see everyone again and get stuck into another term of adventures, challenges, and fun.

Summer Camp 2026 – That’s a Wrap

Well, that’s a wrap – Summer Camp 2026 is officially over, and what a camp it was. The leaders had an absolutely brilliant time, and that wouldn’t have been possible without our fantastic Scouts and the support of parents. They were a real credit to you all: polite, helpful, enthusiastic, and smiling from start to finish.

It’s been a fun‑packed few days of adventure, challenge, and memories that we hope will stay with the Scouts for many years to come. Camps like this are what Scouting is all about, and your young people made it something truly special.

We’ll be uploading more camp photos to the website over the next few days, so keep an eye on the blog Page for updates.

Thanks again for your support — enjoy the rest of the summer, and we’ll see everyone in September.

Scout camp last minuite update

All

Last minute notes for camp, please can you make sure scouts wear their necker for travel on Thursday as this makes it easy for us to identify when we stop at the services .

Also please make sure scouts also bring a pack lunch for Thursday.

We have also noted a torch was not in the kits list Apologies, please make sure scouts bring one as will be needed.

Cheers
