Doodle 1 and Paul O'Brian, my son was also declined entry to a local Cub group (I assume the same one) as we are not catholic - I was also very upset about our child being discriminated in this way from our nearest cub group. It was only due to my son's persuasion that I continued to explore other groups and he now attends the 34th Camberwell at Rye Hill Tenants which is a mixed group with a strong community ethos. Its a shame though that we have to trek for 20 minutes across the park in the dark in the pursuit of inclusion - shameful.
