Three young Explorer Scouts who are heading for the adventure of a lifetime in South Korea were presented with flags by Bonnybridge councillor Billy Buchanan to show his support.
The three Scouts met the former Provost of Falkirk at a coffee morning where they were raising funds to help them represent Falkirk at the World Scout Jamboree next year.
Emma Harvey, from Bonnybridge, along with Douglas and Fraser MacPherson from Brightons, will join more than 40,000 Scouts from over 150 countries across the world, including 4000 from the UK at the World Jamboree, which is held every four years.
