The 4th East Barnet Beaver Scouts have fundraised for London’s Air Ambulance Charity and secured a place for their group name to be displayed on one of our new helicopters.
In July 2023, 4th East Barnet Beaver Scouts contacted London’s Air Ambulance Charity to say that they planned to complete the Charity Challenge Badge and fundraise to support our Up Against Time appeal.
The group sold helicopter pin badges and took part in an obstacle course challenge, raising over £150.
Beaver Scout Leader, Lynzi, a regular supporter of London’s Air Ambulance Charity, was aware of London Legends - our current campaign which, for a £100 donation, enables supporters to add a name onto one of our new helicopters. She thought it would be a fantastic way to mark the group’s achievements and donated the funds to the campaign with a dedication to the 4th East Barnet Beaver Scouts.
In November 2023, our Schools and Youth Engagement Lead, Rhiannon, visited the group to thank them for their fundraising efforts and announce that they will be named on one of the new aircraft. Rhiannon presented the London Legends certificate to the group, which will be displayed on the wall of the hall where they meet each week as a reminder of their achievements.
The Beavers were really excited to learn that their group will be included as London Legends and were keen to tell their families. Lynzi said: “The Beavers were chuffed by the idea that they will be named on the new helicopter and proud to know that when they see the aircraft in the sky it may be the one with their name on.”
