- We're reaching out to our community with heavy hearts following a devastating break-in at our beloved Scouts Hut in Askern. Our hut, a vital space for children and families, has been completely gutted. Everything of value has been stolen – including our brand-new kitchen, all wiring, and anything metal. What couldn't be stolen has been badly damaged.
This hut isn't just a building – it's one of the few safe spaces left for children in our area. It's a place where friendships are formed, life skills are learned, and memories are made. The leaders, volunteers, and parents have poured their hearts into keeping it alive for the kids. And now, someone has taken it all away.
But we won’t let this stop us. We are determined to rebuild, but we can't do it alone. We need your help to restore the Scouts Hut so it can continue being a cornerstone for the children of Askern.
Every donation, no matter how small, will help us rebuild what was taken and bring back the joy and community spirit that this space represents. We also need smaller sundry items such as pens/paper/stationery if you are able to make any physical donations.
Thank you for your support – together, we can make sure this setback is only temporary and that our kids have their hut back soon.
