Nearly 300 scouts will be celebrating their patron saint this weekend.
Bishop Auckland Scout District will hold its St George's Day service at Ferryhill on Sunday, when Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Venture Scouts from South Durham, will gather together.
St George is the patron saint of scouting and to mark the occasion a parade will wind its way from the 1st Ferryhill Scout Group headquarters to St Luke's Church before the service, which will also be attended by local dignitaries.
