1st Hatfield Peverel Scout Group
Suzanne Evans, Secretary & Press Officer (01245-382 397) About Us The 1st Hatfield Peverel Scout Group has recently celebrated its centenary year. The group, which is a key element of village life, is extremely popular, and offers a range of interesting activities that local children possibly wouldn’t experience elsewhere. The group consists of four units for children, covering the age range 6 - 18 years, and one unit for adults, the Scout Active Support Unit (SASU), open to any adult with an interest in scouting.
Units within the 1st Hatfield Peverel Scout Group: Beaver Scouts: 6-8 yrs, meet every Monday between 4pm & 5.15pm. Contact Irene Price 01245-382 390 Cub Scouts: 8-10 ½ yrs, meet every Friday between 6.45pm & 8.15pm. Contact Jo Jarvis 01245 381113 Scouts: 10 ½ – 14 yrs, meet every Wednesday between 7.30pm & 9pm.

There is currently a waiting list for the Beaver, Cub and Scout units, however, the Explorer unit has vacancies. Membership secretary, Lynne Coulson, 01245-381 285 SASU (Adults only): Meet on the first Thursday of the month at 7.45pm A mixed age group of adults, comprising: ex scouts, parents and parents of former scouts - although no connection to scouts is necessary. The SASU are a resource of adult helpers to be used by all the units, however, they also have their own activities and outings. Contact: Jo Oldfield 01245-381 756 Newspaper Collections For many years the group has collected paper and cardboard for recycling, this not only helps the environment, it makes the children aware of environmental issues and also raises money for the group. Collections are made on the first Saturday of the month, please leave your paper and cardboard on the side of the road before 9am and it will be collected. If you are passing the Scout & Guide HQ during the month, please feel free to “post” your newspapers and cardboard through the flaps in the side of the skip, which is situated in the car park. Fund raising Our major project for the foreseeable future is the refurbishment of our headquarters, in particular the kitchen and toilet areas. We hope to be able to secure grants to help with the cost, however, there is much fundraising to be done. We held a family quiz in February, which was extremely successful, raising £300 for our cause. Other events are being planned, including bag-packing at a local supermarket, another quiz, and there will be a prize draw held at our AGM on 13th May 2011. Leaders Needed
We are a busy group, however,
we are desperately short of adult help. We need a Chairperson to run our
committee meetings etc, an Assistant Explorer leader is sought to assist on
Thursday evenings and our Cub Pack require an Assistant leader for Friday
evenings. If you feel that you could take on one of these very rewarding
roles please contact our Group Scout Leader, Nick, on 01245-382 794 or
07841-597 977 for more details.
