Cheshire Brownies, Rainbows Rainbows and Brownies thoroughly enjoyed their session with Paul. Great choice of equipment- and I particularly liked where they had ‘free’ time to explore the equipment. Leaders enjoyed participating too 🤣.

Surrey Beavers, Scouts Shooting Stars came up trumps.
Nick’s understated command and energy provided confidence and self belief to 30 Beavers followed immediately by 30 Scouts ….all of whom had a totally engaged experience.
Experienced leaders stood in awe of his inclusive skill level with these excited young people. A masterclass in ‘how it’s done’. We would not hesitate to recommend..

Brownie Leader 8th November 2022
Lincolnshire Brownies, Rainbows Both groups, Rainbows and Brownies had a wonderful evening. The instructor, Dave had an excellent manner with the girls teaching and keeping them working on their Circus skills with fun and laughter and gradual expertise! He pitched the activities in line with the different age groups so they all benefitted.
I did feel it was useful that we had a few adults on hand to encourage and help out so the girls could make the most of the sessions.
Thank you Dave.

West Sussex Beavers Fantastic experience for our Beaver Group. We booked a whole day session for the group (10-4pm) and then continued with a sleepover. It was brilliant to see the young people learn new skills and as they had time, they were really able to practise and develop them further. The instructor was really good with them, very interactive and encouraging. A great experience for the whole group with lots of fantastic memories..
