A mother of a Scout who spent months raising thousands of pounds to attend the World Scout Jamboree in South Korea has said the event “clearly wasn't safe”.
The 45-year-old, who did not want to be named, told The Independent her daughter, 16, managed to raise almost £3,500 over 18 months of hard work. Among other fundraising efforts, the 16-year-old, with the help of the rest of her family, held bake sales, washed cars, and wrote to her local parish council asking for sponsorship.
