B&Q collection and Jelly Bean Necker Sales

Well the weekend just gone, 8th - 9th March, was a busy one because we had people fundraising in 2 places, from collections in B&Q in Eastleigh to selling neckers at a campsite in Lyndhurst.

A number of scouts went down to B&Q in Eastleigh to help do some bag packing and walk around with collection buckets explaining the worthy cause that customers were donating to. £105.41 was made during this event so well done to those who were collecting that day!

One of the explorers, James, went camping for the weekend with a local scout troop - the one that he volunteers at as a young leader. He took along some jelly bean neckers to the campsite hoping to sell them to scouts and guides (because they were camping at Foxlease, guides swarmed the place)! The neckers were a great hit with the scouts and he sold out within a matter of minutes! £27 was raised so well done James!
