 Once they have their registration, plan what they are doing for each section
 and then they should work on the 3 personal sections (volunteering, physical,
 skill) during the year.

 Any questions about their choices contact  doe@graveshamexplorers.org.uk or  ddc@graveshamscouts.org.uk and they will be checked that all is okay.
