90-year-old cub group near Shooters Hill need new leaders to avoid closure
A cub group based at Shrewsbury House near Shooters Hill needs new leaders to avoid closure.
The 10th Royal Eltham Scouts have warned that their much-loved Cub Pack is facing closure after nearly 90 years of serving the local community, unless they can find a new volunteer leader.
They state: “Our current leaders, Deli and Vince, stepped forward as parents 10 years ago when the pack faced a similar situation. They’ve dedicated a decade to giving local children incredible opportunities, adventures and experiences. Now they’re stepping down, and we desperately need someone new to carry on their legacy.
“If we can’t find a new leader by 4th December, our Cub Pack will close from January until further notice.
“This won’t just affect our current Cubs, but also the younger Beavers who will have nowhere to move up to.
“Our Scout Group has been part of Shooters Hill since 1938, supporting generations of local families. It would be heart-breaking to see such an important part of our community disappear.”
If anyone is interested they note that “the leadership role can be shared between volunteers, and we’re keen to reach people from all walks of life who might be interested in making a difference.
They’re created a recruitment campaign which you can see here:
