Please help 1st Carlton-in-Lindrick Scout Group to replace the roof of their HQ:The roof on the main part of our headquarters building has been deteriorating over the past few years. This had led to the roof starting to leak in a few places. The former farm building was part of the old Glebe Farm which was converted to Scout Headquarters and opened in 1983. The roof was constructed using second hand pantiles which are now becoming very old and brittle and need to be replaced. We intend to use County pantiles to match other buildings in the immediate area including those on the adjacent Parish Centre.The cost of renewing the roof will be £18,500. As a registered charity, we fundraise continually to survive but, as I'm sure you're aware, COVID-19 has had a large impact on all aspects of our everyday lives. For a Scout group it has meant that we haven't been able to organise any face to face Scouting activity since March 2020, and understandably this has had a tremendous impact

Oscar has decided to run from home to the scout hut and back (4 miles approx) on Christmas Eve to raise money towards the roof fund. If the weather makes it unsafe to run, he will complete the run as soon as it is safe to do so.

He’d love anyone who’s able to support him by donating to the Just Giving page.

Thankyou
