Farnham District Scouts – Explorer Belt Award

A huge well done to 6 Farnham District Explorer Scouts who completed and have been awarded the Explorer Belt.

Tom; Fergus; Kiran; Sam; Niamh; Grace; all undertook the challenge of making their own way back to base by walking over at least 150 km in 10 days in Galicia in northern Spain, taking part in 15 projects designed to get them involved in the local communities they walked through – no food or accommodation was pre-provided so they had to plan and budget (they were given a set amount for the whole 10 days) #SkillsforLife.

This is a fantastic opportunity and shows that our Scouts have initiative, resilience and are capable of surviving working together for the common aim.

A big thank you to the support teams.
