A Scout group is on the lookout for a patch of land to build a home of its own.
The 1st Salhouse Scouts are hoping to find a landowner who can donate at least one acre that could be built on.
The group is currently based in the Jubilee Village Hall but hopes to build a new, purpose-built hut as they feel the current shared location is unsuitable.
Jackie Rose, Group Scout Leader for 1st Salhouse Scouts, said: “When you go into a Scout hut, it should resemble a Scout hut.

“We can’t put flags or posters up. As it’s a community hall anything we put up that’s Scouts related we must take down.”
The group provide young people with personal growth opportunities through outdoor activities at different age levels.
Rebecca Houston, chair of Salhouse Scouts, said: "A dedicated facility and outdoor area for camping and activities will significantly enhance the experience we offer Scouts, Cubs and Beavers from diverse backgrounds.

"It will provide a safe, structured environment where they can learn valuable life skills, cultivate teamwork and problem-solving abilities and develop resilience."
Although there is nothing wrong with the Jubilee Village Hall in Lower Street, which was opened in 2002, the group is keen to have a space of its own.
Rebecca added: “The donation of land to the 1st Salhouse Scouts will directly contribute to developing future community leaders and active citizens.

“Having our own land means that we can potentially accommodate and expand our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts troops.
“We are restricted by our current venue, resulting in long waiting lists for young people eager to join our programme.
“By donating land, you will play a vital role in creating a lasting legacy for generations, inspiring countless scouts to become responsible, confident adults.”
Anyone who can potentially donate land can contact group leader Jackie Rose via email using jackierose@talktalk.net.
