Heath and Reach Scout Group
We would like to build a permanent outdoor cooking area for our members and the community, encouraging young people to understand where food comes from, and how to prepare and cook it.

About this cause
We help the community by providing fun and adventure for young people. Our members enjoy a varied programme of activities, events and experiences, encouraging them to learn about the wider world. We also let out our building to community organisations supporting the village, including, most recently as a drop-off point for the local foodbank during the pandemic.
How this cause brings people in the community together
Healthy eating is more important than ever when we are all at home a lot more, so getting young people interested in where food comes from and how it is prepared is important. Teaching them skills about growing, preparing and cooking foods will help them to be well-rounded members of the community, capable of self-sufficiency, living healthily within their means and supporting others.
