15th Lincoln Beavers Collect Donations for Lincoln Foodbank

15th Lincoln (1st North Hykeham) Beavers have been out in the community this weekend, helping to make a real difference to local families.

After a visit from Andy at Lincoln Foodbank during a recent Beaver meeting - where he spoke to the colony about fairness, sharing what we have, and how foodbanks support people in times of need - the young people were inspired to take action.

Over the weekend, they headed to Asda to collect food and monetary donations for Lincoln Foodbank. Shoppers were more than happy to support, and the Beavers threw themselves into the task with enthusiasm, big smiles, and plenty of pride.

Deanna, Beaver Leader at 15th Lincoln, said:  “Our Beavers were so excited to help the Foodbank, especially after learning about why these donations matter. They approached the challenge with kindness and confidence, and we couldn’t be prouder of the effort they put in. It’s been a wonderful way for them to see how small actions can make a big difference.”

Lincoln Scouts are incredibly proud of the 15th Lincoln Beavers for embracing the spirit of helping others and showing true teamwork in action. Community impact lies at the heart of Scouting, and these young people have shown exactly what that looks like in action.
