Good for nothing youngsters!!!!!

I've just had an email from the Bromley scouts, clearly they haven't heard that young people are meant to be rude, feckless and stroppy. Rather than take part in these traditional youth activities they spent their free time in the lead up to Christmas helping people pack their shopping and raising money for charity.


Having already spent their summer refurbishing the gardens of the Demelza House Children's Hospice in Sittingbourne, they have now presented the charity with £12,000 towards equipment for their new hospice in Eltham. Twelve grand!!!! How is that going to reinforce the negative stereotype of young people, I ask you?


Well done to the Bromley District Scouts, well done to the shoppers in Sainsbury's and well done to the staff at Demelza's

James,

Many congratulations on your appointment as the Mayor of London's Ambassador for Young People - you're the perfect appointment and, having seen you interact with our young people, I can confidently predict that you'll be a success.
