Brownies receive Lions Challenge Badges
Brownies from Wroxham and Hoveton were presented with their Lion Challange Badges. With Lion Lydia Spight doing the honours.
The Challenge is designed to teach and encourage participants in five ‘Areas of Excellence’ – Creative, Community, Communications, Environment and Safety. Participants undertake tasks and learn new skills appropriate to their age group over a period of several weeks. The Badge joins the many others that Brownies and Guides work to earn during their guiding career.

Scarlett shows off her new wheelchair
At our October meeting, we were delighted to welcome Scarlett Phillips and her family.
Scarlett suffers from a condition which makes it hard for her to get about. To help with this she needed to have a custom-made specialised wheelchair to get around. An approach was made to the Club and we were pleased to be able to contribute £6,500 towards the total cost of almost £15,000.
At the formal handing over, Scarlett was also given her a cuddly Lion as a souvenir of the evening.
Scarlett said she was very pleased with the chair and could now go on adventures!
