A Romsey Scout group has received a £750 donation to replace its worn-out tents.
The 10th Romsey Scout Group, which includes Scouts, Cubs, Beavers and Squirrels, was given the cheque by Romsey & Waterside Lions.
The group, formed in 1959, has 161 members aged four to 14.
The donation will help them prepare for a district scouting camp in May.

The donation was presented by Lion Ian Donnison to Scout leader Martyn Blake.
The group’s current tents, which accommodate two to three people, will be replaced after years of use.
