Debbie Conibere, Fundraising Co-ordinator of 1st Weybridge Scout Troop (the oldest scouting group in Surrey) has thanked Rainbow Red's clients who kindly contributed around 20 dustbin bags of textiles, towards their recent HQ Renovation Appeal.


Textile Recycling company Phil The Bag confirmed that 1st Weybridge had broken all records, by collecting an astounding 4 tonnes (1000 bags) of assorted clothing, bags, bed linen, towels, curtains, etc from local Elmbridge residents.  


And still the trollies come!

1st Weybridge Scouts - Textile Appeal

Rainbow Red is delighted to be helping the 1st Weybridge Scout Group by donating decluttered textiles from its clients to their Scout Hut Maintenance Appeal. 

As a former Cub Scout Leader herself, Cherry Rudge of Rainbow Red is well aware not only of the benefits that children gain from being involved with the Scout movement from an early age (things like respect, independence, camping skills and an introduction to leadership), but also the enormous costs of running the group and maintaining premises. 

For further information about 1st Weybridge Scouts and their Hut Maintenance Appeal, see the 1st Weybridge Scouts website. or contact Debbie Conibere (Fundraiser for 1st Weybridge Scouts) on 07931 945282.
