Just our Boys marching past the Cenotaph in London with millions watching on TV!
What a wonderful experience for the 8 young people from our Battalion who took part in the National Remembrance Parade in Whitehall. They were part of a larger group of BB members from groups across the country.
Our group who travelled to London met with @OwenThompson earlier for a tour of Parliament. They also met Lindsay Hoyle, speaker of the house. We are gratefully to Owen for his time and his continued support.
We have 8 boys from 2 of our groups travelling down to London today. They will be taking part in the national Remembrance Parade at the Cenotaph on Sunday.

We're 140 today! 🥳 From one group in Glasgow to a worldwide movement, we're proud to celebrate this significant milestone 🙌 We give thanks to God for his faithfulness and all the opportunities for children and young people to experience "life to the full" (John 10:10) #BB140
It was a case of lights, camera, action at our Headquarters earlier this evening. We were delighted to welcome Peter Sawkins (2020 Bake Off Winner). Peter will be involved in promotional material that we will be releasing later this year.

Last night I attended the East Lowland Area Queens Badge Presentation in Blackburn. A great occasion, witnessing boys being presented with their Queens Award. Presenting the awards was the Lord Lieutenant for West Lothian, Moira Niven. @eldbb
Along with other Battalions and Companies across Scotland we were proud to be able to provide the Guard of Honour to the Lord High Commisioner for the Church of Scotland.
We welcomed the Lord High Commisioner to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland to Battalion HQ. Our thanks to all our members in attendance who helped showcase the best of the BB. Our thanks also to @jonathanealesbb and @OwenThompson who were able to join us.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the Boys' Brigade Beating Retreat on Saturday evening at Edinburgh Castle. We had bands from Edinburgh and other parts of Scotland coming together to create a wonderful spectacle.
