When we were contacted by our local Scout group in March this year, we were happy to assist them so that 10 of their Scouts could attend the VE Day Concert in London - an unforgettable experience that would bring history to life and honour those who served. This was an extraordinary opportunity which would allow young people to learn, grow, and experience adventures that shape their futures. 

After the concert we got a message from the Scouts:

Thank you so, so much for helping us get to London! We had the best time ever and we’ll never forget it!

The best part was the VE Day concert. It was brilliant! There was music and everyone was singing and cheering. We even saw the King and some Veterans, and it felt really special to be there with them.

Thank you again for helping make all this happen. We had such a memorable time and are really grateful.

With all our thanks from all at Richmondshire District Scouts
