Description

Brief student documentary about the scouting movement, featuring a gang show production in Leamington Spa and the activities of the 7th Warrington Scout Troop. Teenage boys and girls, along with scout leaders, talk positively about their own experiences of scouting and compare it to the unfashionable image they feel it has acquired. Scout leaders Kelly and Louisa also describe their acceptance, as young women, by the Warrington troop.

[Catalogued as part of 'Revitalising the Regions' - a Screen Heritage UK project, 2011]
