“What does the C.W.B. mean?”

“What does the C.W.B. mean?”

One of the questions we are often asked is “What does C.W.B. stand for on your nametape?” It stands for Cheshire Wood Badge and it was presented to 4th Runcorn Scout Group by Derek Oliver, the then County Commissioner of Cheshire. It was his own personal Wood Badge which he presented to the Group in recognition of the quality of Scouting which was being offered to the young people at the time. He suggested that the Group might be known as 4th Runcorn Scout Group C.W.B. and this has remained our name ever since.
