Development

Cox Wood can only develop even further with your help.

We hold regular working parties at weekends - why not get your Scouts to come down and lend a hand - it'll count towards their badges. It's also a lot of fun - how many kids do you know who don't like getting caked in mud!!!

Contact Ian McLean to find out when the next working party is and just turn up to get involved. Remember to wear appropriate clothing and footwear, gloves, and bring any tools you can.
