Worksop: Scout leader Peter heads to Japan

Peter Bass is helping to deliver the jamboree programme to 30,000 people from over 150 countries.

He will be meeting people from all over the globe, taking part in amazing adventures and experiences and be challenged to think about global issues in a new light.

Peter, who has joined the International Service Team (IST), the driving force behind the jamboree, said: “I’m really looking forward to Japan and meeting lots of people from different countries.”

“Working as a volunteer encompasses the message of scouting, being flexible and has evolved to make it easy for adults to fit voluntary work into whatever spare time adults can offer.”
