Twins flag up 100-year milestone for world's Scouts

Twin's Jade and Holly Whittle are flying the flag for Scouting.

Jade, from Deighton Avenue, Leyland, has been chosen to represent South Ribble at the 100 Years of Scouting celebrations being held at the Dome in London later this month – and she'll be carrying a flag designed by sister Holly.

More than 1,000 scouts from all over the world will attend the event and will display the flag of their region.

The flag Jade will carry is the result of a design competition open to hundreds of scouts throughout South Ribble and won by Holly.

Scouting started in 1907 and today there are more scouts in more countries around the world than at any stage in its history.
