Back us all the way to the bank

SCOUTS and Guides in Astwood Bank could be in with a chance of winning £3,000.

The organisation is calling on residents to back them after being chosen for the Lloyds Bank Community Fund.

If enough votes are received, they could be given between £500 and £3,000 which would be used to improve access to their building in Manor House Lane for disabled young people and adults.

Group scout leader Sally Payne said: “We have welcomed a number of young people with physical disabilities as scouts and guides over the years and our volunteer leaders work hard to make sure that they can participate in the fun and adventure that scouting and guiding offers.




“We know our building is not ideal for disabled children or visitors and we would like to make it easier for everyone to access our meeting place.

“We really hope that the local community supports us by casting their vote.”
