EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print captured by Doug Moody, we witness the incredible generosity and compassion of the Scouts from Skelton. It was the 5th of October in 1998 when these young boys decided to send their old football strip to orphans in Poland, a gesture that would forever leave an indelible mark on both sides. The image showcases these Scouts proudly donning their brand new strips, gifted as a token of appreciation for their selfless act. Their beaming smiles radiate pure joy and satisfaction, knowing they have made a difference in the lives of those less fortunate. Accompanying them is a certificate expressing gratitude for their donations. This small piece of paper holds immense value, symbolizing not only the material support provided but also the love and solidarity shared between communities across borders. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder that charity knows no boundaries - it transcends age, nationality, and background. These schoolchildren exemplify what it means to be part of something greater than oneself; they embody unity and empathy through simple acts of kindness. As we look back at this snapshot from the past, let us remember when these Scouts came together as one united force to bring hope and happiness into the lives of orphaned children thousands of miles away. May their inspiring story continue to inspire future generations towards acts of compassion and goodwill.
