Jake my eldest son received his Queens Badge which is the highest Award you can receive in the Boys Brigade. Its a 2 year course with 2 visits to BB Headquarters here in Scotland at the Beginning and End. He had to also do lots of Voluntary Service. He did 30 Hours helping with the Anchor Boys (P1 to 3). 30 Hours helping as Stage Crew in the Local Theatre. He also had to learn skills. Jake Learned and got an SVQ in Motor Vehicle Care. Finally for his physical he got his handicap at golf and also played for the Local Junior Artisans. SO all in all a HUGE amount of work and a HUGE achievement for Jake. Over the last couple of years things really haven't been easy for him with other things but he stuck in and was determined to get this badge. To say Im the Proudest Mum is an understatement.

Well done boys! I've 'watched' you grow up through the posts of Mum's blog and you've both done really well. Well done too Hazel for making it to the event. A family who should all feel very proud of each other.
