Leaving a donation to Gilwell Park is a very special way of remembering the life of a relative or friend especially if they have enjoyed their time in Scouting and they want others to share and enjoy that adventure in the future.
Many supporters ask for a donation to be made at their funeral in lieu of flowers or upon the anniversary of their death knowing the donation will be used for the development of Gilwell Park. If you would like to remember a fellow Scouter in this way then please contact Lynn Young for more information
