Hello,

I'm Gemma, a Squirrel Section Leader at 1st West Malling Scout Group.

As part of ArcticQuest 2026 leadership team, and with fourteen Network Scouts we will be working as a team to sail to the Arctic Circle. We will be celebrating 100 years since Frank Worsley and Scout Marr took part in the British Arctic Expedition 1926.

While away I shall be undertaking a personal project, and when back from the Arctic I shall be sharing my experience with the community and young people as far as can reach.

Individually and as a team we will be fundraising over the next 3 years. Your donation would support myself to participate in this amazing opportunity. Thank you for your support.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES:

VOYAGE An adventurous expedition Under sail in the Frozen North.

PROJECTS Undertake personal projects and present the results.

WORSLEY Celebrate the achievements of Frank Worsley.

OUTREACH Share the experience with thousands of young people.
