Crisis, what financial crisis?

 
What: A Question and Answer session on Zoom, with Dr. Peter Wagner, Lecturer in Economics, York University for Rangers and Young Leaders (and Scouting friends)
When: Wednesday 25 January 2023, 19:00-20:30

Following on from previous sessions for Explorers and Rangers about politics and policing, Peter will lead a stimulating discussion around the causes of inflation and the cost of living crisis.
 
We will want to collate some questions in advance, so do encourage your young people to research how prices have changed over the last 30 years, plus how incomes have changed over the same time period, and why.  Let's consider the implications, in particular poverty, and what can be done about it.

Larkin Jamboree 2024


North Yorkshire Scouts are planning an International Jamboree in 2024. This will be held the 27^th July to 3^rd August 2024 at Duncombe Park, Helmsley. There is a website and leaders are encourages to sign up for updates, so they get information as it is released. We would love Guide and Ranger units to join us at the Jamboree for a week of fun and adventure. Brownies and Rainbows will also be able to join in the fun with their own programmes. 

Adults also have the option to be part of the organising team or the service team at the event and if leaders would like to do that, then they can use the Volunteer button on the website - we would love to see lots of Girlguiding members help deliver this International Jamboree in 2024!
