A New Chapter Begins: Our Grand Opening!

By Carl Travis-Roberts on September 13, 2025

What a weekend! We’re thrilled to announce the official grand opening of our brand-new scout hut on Saturday, 13th September. This new building marks a huge milestone for the 1st Nanpantan Scout Group, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome our young people and the wider community into our new home.

The day was a huge success, filled with members of our community, local leaders, councillors, and all the amazing people who have supported us on this journey. The Mayor of Charnwood, Councillor David Northage, and Councillor Jennifer Tillotson from Charnwood Borough Council joined us for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony. It was a proud moment for all of us to finally open the doors after so much hard work.
