A group in the Gambia west Africa we are an active scout group far back the year (2000).upto date an the group have a membership of about 46 scouts ranging from ( Beavers ,cub scouts ventures and explorers scouts).

We as a group will need the support of other scouts group outside the Gambia. This is through a twinning or linking us a scouts friends and partners to any other group interested so far this is all about exchanging ideas and teaching each other about scouting in all aspects.

Remember the ( 100 years of scouting ) . Which was just recently celebrated in the u.k.

The theme of the celebration is one world one promise and as a scouter we should remember the words of the founder Lord Robert Stephenson Borden Powell. Who mention that in scouting you must try to leave the world a little bit better than you find it
