Hi Everyone,

Siân (one of my Explorer Scouts) and Myself will be partaking in the Scouts Scotland Kelpie Challenge.

We will be climbing up through one of the Kelpies on a multi level aerial assault course followed by an adrenaline rushing descent on a quick flight or abseil.

We've challenged ourselves to help Scouts Scotland raise £25,025 in 2025 to help more young people to experience the life-changing power of adventure through Scouts.

Not every young person has the opportunity to participate in Scouts. Some struggle to afford camp and equipment, while many others have no Scout group in their community. We want to change that.

The money we raise will subsidise young people who could not otherwise afford it to go on nights away, help Scouts Scotland reach new communities, pay for equipment like tents and waterproofs to support young people who cannot afford their own, and help renew ageing infrastructure at Scout Scotland's outdoor centres to keep costs down.

Anything you can give will help, thank you so much for your contributions.
