#EarthHour has been created by the @WWF to encourage and unite people to spend one hour taking action to help the the planet. It happens every year on the 25 March.
Why not spend a Scouts meeting taking part safely in one of our 'in the dark' activities? bit.ly/42qI31Y

Don't forget - clocks go forward one hour at 1am tomorrow morning!
Can you work out where these timeless shots were taken? ⏰
Well they did it - they found a builders sack in the bushes halfway through and put all their rubbish bags in and filled it with dog poo bags and other rubbish, all in just 1 hour around the pond #Edinburgh @earthhour @sesscouts #fundraising @WWF @ScoutsScotland @worldscouting
Last night we focussed on #EarthHour and in a hurry some of the scouts from 85th braid organised to do a sponsored litter pick tomorrow around Blackford hill ahead of 8.30-9.30 #MyHourForEarth @earthhour @wwf_uk @sesscouts @ScoutsScotland @scouts justgiving.com/fundraising/8…

Today we took 14 scouts from 85th braid to Apple Store Edinburgh where they learned some coding using the @SwiftPlayground app on iPads. Hour long session. Suitable for 10+ but even older scouts got something out of it. #apple #edinburgh #skills4life @sesscouts @ScoutsScotland

Proud of the scouts @85thBraid @sesscouts who completed their @UKScouting Expedition Challenge over weekend - 1st day cycling 15 miles South Queensferry - Edinburgh, a sleep at home, then 2nd day 10 miles walk from Meadows to Prestonpans along @JohnMuirWay. A great challenge!
