Thanks to the Mayor for this report …

“36 young people from Oxfordshire will be attending the 22nd World Jamboree in Sweden next summer. Jamboree’s are huge camps with Scouts attending from nearly every country on earth. Lord Baden Powell intended them to foster good relations between countries and promote peace. They’re great fun and they can change young peoples lives, I know, I attended one in Korea in 1991. Today they have been packing bags at tesco in return for small change. If you’d like to help you can also become a Jamboree mate. For a donation of £10 you will be informed of the contingent progress and even get a post card from Sweden.
