Today, Alistair and Steve on behalf of all of us at 11th Folkestone Scouts were very excited to attend a gathering with Eurotunnel Company Council inside the Channel Tunnel complex and receive an award of a £500 donation. We’d like to pass on our sincere thanks for this great gift and recognising the work we do for the youth of Folkestone. Thanks!

Trustees’ Week: 12-16 November 2018 What are trustees? Trustees are the people in charge of a charity. They help to make the UK the sixth most giving country in the world. They play a vital role, volunteering their time and working together to make important decisions about the charity’s work. Trustees’ Week is an annual event to showcase the great work that trustees do and highlight opportunities for people from all walks of life to get involved and make a difference. It’s also a chance for us to say ‘THANK YOU’ to our trustees on the Group Executive Committee for all their hard work behind the scenes that keep the Group running and growing.
