The Worshipful Company of Tax Advisers

London Scout Association Affiliation

I am delighted to announce that we have agreed a 5 year affiliation with agreement with the London Scout Association which will be supported by TACT. My thanks to Adam Taylor who brought this proposition to the Company and its Charities. The London Scout Association fits extremely well with TACT’s policies, focusing on children, providing them with skills and opportunities which will benefit their communities and enrich their own futures.

Today, 20 February, the Master, his Consort and I had the pleasure of joining Adam at Westminster Abbey  for a  National Scout Service of Celebration and Thanksgiving. Westminster Abbey has significant meaning for the Scouts. Following the death of The Lord Baden-Powell, the founder and Chief Scout of the World, a memorial stone to Lord Baden-Powell was unveiled in the Abbey on 23 April 1947.

Following the service we were guests of the Scout Association at a reception held in Central Hall, Westminster
