Scouts will parade through Fareham on Sunday in a celebration of St George’s Day.

All 12 Scout Groups in the Denewulf district – which includes Fareham and the Meon Valley and was formed last year – will be parading through Fareham.

The groups include Squirrels aged four to six, Beavers aged six to eight, Cubs aged eight to 10, Scouts aged 10 to 14 and Explorers, who are between 14 and 18. There are more than 1,000 Scouts across the group so hundreds are expected on Sunday.
