Dear Member Here comes this week’s scorching Scouting Plus. Whilst indulging in this week’s goodies, check out the shiny new Scouting magazine website? It's your perfect accompaniment to sunshine. Scouting’s Vision Towards 2018 For the past two years we have been working with all Members to develop a new vision, ensuring Scouting continues to meet the needs of young people and adults. Together we have agreed that vision. Watch our video and find out what we want Scouting to look like in 2018. Can you make a difference? There are many exciting opportunities for volunteers to play a major part in a number of areas. If you’re interested in adult training, leadership and management, recruitment and retention, Scout Active Support or diversity, there’s a role for you. Find out more on the UK Adult Support team page.   Donate your unwanted books As part of a nationwide scheme, we’re looking for donations of second hand children’s books. Between 20 June and 3 July, you can help Bookbridge improve young people’s chances in Cambodia by registering as a collection centre. For more information on how to get involved, visit the Bookbridge website.
