Walking With The Wounded

Posted on October 30th, 2015 by tja

Members of the Group were up bright and early on Saturday morning to support Walking With The Wounded (WWTW). Six military veterans from the UK and US armed forces – who sustained severe injury in service – have been completing a 1000-mile trek across the land as part of the Walk of Britain 2015 to raise money and awareness for those leaving the services as a consequence of physical and mental injury.

Cubs and Beavers met the WWTW Walk of Britain team (Alec Robotham, Royal Marines; Matt Fisher, 3 Rifles; Scott Ransley, Royal Marines; Stewart Hill, The Royal Welsh; Andrew Bemont, US Marine Corps; Kirstie Ennis, US Marine Corps), who kindly posed for photographs with the Young People before heading off on the final full day of their challenge. Other local organisations including the Rotary, Guides, Brownies, and Cadets were also present to mark the occasion, with the latter providing a full marching band that lead the send-off procession through the town.

1st Chertsey Scout Group were happy to contribute to the fundraising, and all those attending agreed that the WWTW team walkers were an inspiration to all. One of the WWTW team – Matt Fisher – grew up in Chertsey, and it was a poignant reminder of how conflict can affect those both on and off the battlefield, and have consequences for all those involved, long after individual campaigns have been concluded.

The WWTW team Tweeted: “Thank you Chertsey for kicking off our last full day of walking! Can’t believe #WalkOfBritain is almost finished! ” Twitter feed link.

Comedy Night Review

Posted on October 17th, 2015 by tja

The Comedy Night on 17th October was a storming success. Once again, Crown Comedy Chertsey – Barely Regal put together a great lineup of acts, and the event was a sell-out!!!

Many, many thanks to those who donated prizes for the fundraising auction, and to everyone for coming along and making a lively atmosphere.

Stephen DiPlactico – of Crown Conedy Chertsey and MC for the night – said later: “Another top gig raising money for great local causes, pleasure to mc great acts and tip of the hat to a top promoter Nick Root. Everyone was full of praise and couldn’t get enough of Alistair Williams Tom Holmes Alasdair Beckett-King and Jonny Awsum…” and Nick Root, also of Crown Comedy Chertsey, commented: “Fantastic comedy night for 1st Chertsey Scout Group. Lots of money raised and we had a ball doing it. Many thanks goes to those that organised it and to all our fabulous comedians. From the charismatic Compere Stephen Di Placito, to the amazing Alistair Williams, the tremendous Tom Holmes the astounding Alasdair Beckett-king and the jubilant and jolly Jonny awsum. It was a perfect night with a such a great atmosphere from the sell-out crowd.”

The Group raised over £4600 from ticket sales and auction bids. Fantastic! A real boost to our HQ fundraising efforts.
