Helpers needed for Cubs and Scouts on Bellenden Road


Recommended Posts

We are looking for people of all ages to help run our Beaver, Cub and Scout groups on Bellenden Road.


The 3rd Camberwell is a thriving scout group with over 50 children aged 6-14 attending each week, learning a wide range of important life skills.


Due to leaders leaving the area or retiring, we need urgently new leaders in all sections from September.


Don?t worry if you know nothing about scouting or have never worked with children, you will be trained in the skills appropriate to the section that interests you.


Our groups are: Beavers, age 6-8, (Monday 6-7pm); Cubs, 8-10 yrs (Tuesday 6.30-8pm) and Scouts, aged 10-14 (Monday 7.15-8.45pm).


In just 2 hours a week you can have fun, meet new friends and make a difference to young people in the local area.


Please get in touch with us at thirdcamberwell @ hotmail.com to arrange an initial chat or reply to this post if you have any questions.

I have been helping at this group for a few years and they are a very friendly bunch! It's rewarding to see the young people develop new skills, and the camps and outdoor activities are fun too.


The group is popular with a long waiting list, they just could do with a couple more helpers on either monday or tuesday evenings.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
