SCOUTS have come together to collect items for a foodbank.

Members of the 1st Castle Hedingham Scouts collected more than 100 items for their foodbank.

Spokesman Chris Roe-Bullion said: “The Scouts were enthusiastic about helping.

"They believe they have a duty to make a difference in their community, something that is at the heart of the Scouting organisation and its ethos.

“We are constantly pushing young people to learn more about themselves and the world around them, with various challenges all year round.”

The group aims to help young people learn skills for life.
