Tonight was a very proud moment for us all at 8th Letchworth. Two of our young people, who have been through Beavers, Cubs and Scouts with us, then returned to our Cub Section as Young Leaders were awarded their Young Leader Belts by Chris King. As well as helping every week and on plenty of weekends with the cubs, they have also had to complete training modules and assessments in their own time.
