A SCOUT group has won £10,000 towards the fund for a new headquarters.

Crosland Moor Scouts got the cash from the Garfield Weston Foundation, a grant-giving charity founded by a Canadian businessman.

A total of £350,000 has been raised for a new building to replace the Scout headquarters at Moorside Avenue.

But another £136,000 is still needed.

The lottery Awards For All fund has given £4,544 for replacement chairs and tables at the present headquarters.
