Ruislip Beavers and Cubs Remembrance Day Service

2nd/9th Ruislip Beavers and Cubs were proud to take part in the service this year that takes place in the Youth Chapel in Mad Bess Woods. This year, the event was superbly organised by 5th Ruislip (Ruislip Catholic Church) Scout Group.

We had a superb turnout of five Beavers and nine Cubs.
