Out Latest Corona Virus Updates
Following the latest relaxation of the corona virus rules across the UK, the Scout Association have updated guidance for scouts, this means the group will.
Where ever possible, we will continue to meet outdoors. Once the school allow us back into the hall, we will have the option of indoor activities.
Social distancing is no longer required, however scouts, explorers, young leaders and adults will be required to wear masks whenever direct physical contact is required or in poorly ventilated spaces. Scouts, explorers, young leaders should continue to bring a mask each week.
Any young person who wishes to wear a mask beyond our requirements above are welcome to continue (including beavers and cubs).
Young people must not attend if they have been asked to isolate, have corona virus symptoms or are within 10 days of a positive test.
Kit List
Young people should wear a necker to show that they are part of 4th Washington, but don’t need to wear full uniform over the summer. From September, we intend to return to uniform across the group.
A drink
A waterproof coat
Extra warm clothes - E.g. a hat and gloves, additional layer
Mask/Face Covering - Members of the scout section are required to bring a mask.
Safety Information
Here is a link to the scout association guidance that we're following.
We continue to follow NHS Test and Trace protocols and will identify close contacts in the event of a corona case following a scout meeting.
Transport
Please park at the bottom car park (near the house itself). You will be greeted by a leader who will signpost you to the area where activities are taking place.
Weather
In the event that we can't go ahead due to bad weather on the night, we'll send out a text message to all of the booked participants to confirm our postponement by 16:00.
