Help us raise funds for a new roof and removal of the old stage to expand our space and create more opportunities for young people!

Project by Holmwood and Capel Scout Group

We're still collecting donations

On the 15th January 2025 we'd raised £50 with 3 supporters in 84 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

Our Mission: Empowering Young People

At 24th Dorking Scouts, we believe in the power of young people to shape their communities. We provide a safe and creative space for young people to explore their talents, connect with one another, and develop essential skills. However, as our community grows, so do our needs.

The Vision: A Brighter, More Versatile Space

Currently, our hut is limited by an aging roof and an old stage that restricts our capacity. By replacing the roof and removing the outdated stage, we can:

  • Increase Capacity: Allow more young people to participate in our programs.
  • Create Versatile Spaces: Have a flexible space for more program activities, performances, and group gatherings.
  • Enhance Safety: Ensure a safe environment for all activities.

How You Can Help

We’re aiming to raise as much as we can through this crowdfunding campaign to help save our hut and keep the group going. Here’s how the funds will be allocated:

  • Roof Replacement: The replacement roof is circa £50K for materials and labour.
  • Stage Removal and flooring: £6K will allow us to remove the stage, put down flooring and create more useable storage.

What Our Young People Say

“You don't have to be the best at anything, you are just accepted as you are and encouraged to do your best.” – Oscar, Scout

“It's a really good way to keep in touch with friends I would have lost due to going to different secondary schools” – Lucas Explorer Scout

Join Us on This Journey

With your support, we can transform our hut and create a safe place for the next generation. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to our goal. Together, we can build a brighter future for young people in our community!

Yours in Scouting,

The 24th Dorking Scouts Team
