Gwyn’s first official group run took Ashley, Pete and Tracey on a 2 km trot through Darley Park to the 63rd Derby Scouts Hall in Darley Abbey on a rather appropriately named street: The Hill!

We joined a network of scouts, parents and leaders in beavering away at the overgrown garden, squirreling rocks from the undergrowth, and transporting them to an orderly pile next to the hut.

The group had provided us with cubs of water - much appreciated in the 29-degree temperature – so that our group of explorers would be prepared for our jog back through the park.
