HM The Queen
Wetherby District Scouts have joined the nation in mourning the loss of our monarch and Patron, HM The Queen. Her outstanding example of service, encouragement and kindness was an inspiration to us all and for seven decades she encouraged Scouts to do their best and do their duty to help other people.
With other local community groups we were represented at the reading of the Proclamation of Accession by the Mayor of Wetherby on Sunday 11th September and at the Mayor’s reception prior to the funeral of HM The Queen on 19th September. Wetherby District Scouts were proud to be represented at the funeral day event by Morgan Harness, an Explorer and Queen’s Scout, and leader Paul Harness, both from Wetherby Whalers Explorer Scout Unit.
