Postcards from the Centre – Did you know?

Did you know that during the First World War the Boy Scouts were called upon to support the war effort by tackling a wide range of tasks, including whitewashing kerbstones, guarding bridges and helping to dig over parks and spaces for allotments?

Contributed by Joe Engledew, Year 10 pupil at Richard Hale School, Hertford.
