A BROMSGROVE scout group recently took part in a trip to an activities camp.

Leaders of the third Bromsgrove Evergreens took 16 scouts to the camp in Bishampton earlier this month.

The scouts worked hard to achieve their Basic Nautical Skills activity badge, during the visit.

They took part in various activities including bell boating, a quiz and a course of first aid.

This involved creating fake wounds and the youngsters, including 12-year-old Tristan Gee, later joked with parents they had suffered an accident.

Nathan Joss, a budding scout, said: "It was really great, we had lots of fun."
