EXPLORERS, Scouts, Cubs and Beavers are benefiting from a new minibus thanks to a cash boost from Middlewich Round Table.

Second Middlewich Scouts, based in Brooks Lane, were given £2,500 towards a new bus after the Round Table heard they were struggling to raise funds.

It is now being used to take the youngsters camping and rafting and to visit places like fire and police stations.

Cub leader Alex Elson said: “It’s fantastic. It’s enabled us to give the Explorers, Scouts, Cubs and Beavers a wide variety of experiences.

“Since the last bus conked out we’ve been struggling but now it’s given us a new lease of life.”
