During November and December 2015, members of our Scout Troop created dignity packs to give out to the homeless.
These consisted of the shampoo, conditioner, a bar of soap and washing liquid.
Each bag also contained a message of hope hand written by the Scouts.
The items were donated with collected tins of food to Rosies Friends of the Street.
The Scouts used the money to buy the items rather than have an end of year breakup party.
