Cornwall Scout Fellowship Safety Team  Cornwall Scout Fellowship Safety Team
CSFST This Fellowship was initially suggested as long ago as Kernow 97, and the idea was resurrected again during the Cornwall Centenary Camp in May 2007, but was again reaffirmed upon completion of the Sunrise Ceremony on 1st August 2007, and the fellowship was born - on the day that scouting was. Why 'Safety' Team and not 'Security' Team. Well the term 'Safety' covers several aspects including Marshalling, Stewarding and First Aid, whereas the team Security only covers a small aspect of what the team is designed to do. Our Scarf: Why Purple with an Orange Border ? Well Purple is the Nationally recongnised Scout Polo Shirt Colour, and the NSFST wear Purple Polos with their logo on, and Orange is the colour of the Hi Visability (Hi-Vis) Jacket we wear. To join the 'Cornwall Scout Fellowship Safety Team' The downloadable Application form should be completed and forwarded to: Kelly Johnson, 1 Rose Cottage, Rame Cross, Penryn, TR10 9ED With the form you should include a cheque for £10.00 as a joining fee (Cheques made payable to 'Cornwall Scout Fellowship Safety Team') This will cover the purchase of a scarf, a nametape an ID Card and also an intial years membership; thereafter an additional fee of £5.00 will be required. Please also include two passport sized colour photographs of yourself, one for inclusion on the ID Badge and one for retaining with the application records. A copy of your current CRB should also be attached. Full members will be 18+, Trainee members by negotiation. The scarf, ID Card and the nametapes etc make up about 50% of the joining fee; but it might be that in the future we can use some of the residue money to provide HV Jackets or T-Shirts. NSFST We fully support the 'National Scout Fellowship Security Team', and aim to get the majority of our members interested in Security to also join and be members of the NSFST in order that we can work to the same aims and in harmony for the benefit of all.
