1st Tidbury Green (Wythall) Scout Group

Extension underway at Wythall Park Scout Headquarters...

The sun shone when the building work started on 26th March to extend the 1st Tidbury Green (Wythall) Scout Headquarters in Wythall Park.

The work makes up the second phase of improvements taking place in the building, following the refurbishment of the meeting hall, toilets, kitchen and the heating system that was installed in 2011. This second phase involves the creation of an extension to the building which will allow separate meeting rooms, increased storage space and more flexibility for the different users that are being welcomed to the site.

This £100,000 extension project marks the culmination of this building's return to good condition and will dramatically improve the range of uses that can be supported at the site. With established use already by the scouts and associated groups, this will provide a multi-use facility for other community associations.

The construction itself will take between 3-4 months and will be celebrated by an official open day on 8th September 2012 to commemorate the organisation's achievements.

The project has been funded from a number of sources, including considerable community fundraising, a number of local Trusts, a significant contribution from Simon Beckett from Beckett's Farm and £50,000 from The Veolia Environmental Trust through the Landfill Communities Fund.

With the support of the leaders and scouts they have organized a Diary of Events for both the parents of the group and for the wider community. The diary for these can be seen on the fundraising pages of this web site. The big fundraiser for next year is the Wythall & Hollywood 5km Race and Fun Run www.wythall-hollywood-funrun.org.uk.
