Swindon Scout raises £4000 for Indian orphanage
Wednesday, October 7th, 2009
Chief Scout Bear Grylls has congratulated a Swindon Scout who has raised £4000 for an Indian orphanage in Delhi.
Ali, a 12-year-old Scout with the 18th Swindon Group, was left in a basket outside the Palna orphanage in Delhi when he was a baby. It was on a visit to the orphanage in 2006 with his adoptive parents Neil and Kauser that he was inspired to raise funds.
He began by giving speeches about the visit, selling plants, making and selling cakes and organising charity dinners.

Scouts wing it at Windsor
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009
Scouts from 40 countries around the world have descended on Windsor Great Park for an action packed week camping in the Queen’s back garden.
They have joined over 6000 other Scouts and Guides at Wings International Jamboree held in Windsor, UK.
Making a difference is the theme of the international camp being held in Windsor Great Park and participants take part in local community projects to make a contribution back to their host community.
One of the key parts of the week’s programme is for participants to explore the Global Development Village where they can find out more about other countries, as well as what they can do to make their own a better place.
‘I love Jamborees…’
