If you wish to continue with Boys' Brigade whether permanently or until another group is set up, please consider visiting our friends at 22nd Southend-on-Sea Boys Brigade & Girls Association at Belle Vue Baptist or 3rd Southend Boys Briagde & 1st Shoeburyness Girls Brigade at Friars Baptist Church.
I will assist in transferring any badgework credits or other transition needs as best I can.

I'd like to thank you for all your support and kind words. Please also be reassured my decision to no longer continue as Captain was based on my wellbeing. The decision to close the company, and the time frame to do it, was made by the leadership of the church.

My thoughts are with you, the parents and the youngsters. As an elderly gentleman told me at a funeral last year 'you are always part of BB no matter how far you are from it'.

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Supporters,

Whilst I had looked forward to growing the company at the beginning of the year, I now cannot continue as Captain at Shoeburyness and Thorpe Bay Baptist. The church has decided that I should step down immediately.

Unfortunately, this also means that the 9th Boys Brigade and Girls Association at Shoeburyness and Thorpe Bay Baptist is also to close effective immediately with no session this Thursday 7th November.

This has been a hard process and one that has been painful to see unfold given the impact it might have on the children and young people.

The attached letter is from the Church Lead Pastor setting out what the church has in store and who to contact with any questions.

I thank you for all your support and kind words over the years and I wish the very best for your child. I am so sorry to end this way and regret that I am unable to continue running the company and providing this safe and friendly space for your child.

All the best

Tom

This Thursday saw our Anchors and Juniors learn about ancient Egypt, which involved making each other into mummies, decrypting hieroglyphics and mummy hot dogs. Our Senior and company section thought about new life in their devotions and then helped fill some planters for the shoebury Bookshed (there may even be some strawberry plants hidden away in there too).

Yesterday saw our company and Senior sections take on a challenge to play competative football for 12 hours. They were split into two teams, bibs and non-bibs. At the end of they day they were all still on their feet! Non-bibs won 401 to 369. Well done to the young people who accomplished such an outstanding achievement and for the leaders who organised it!

This Thursday saw our Anchors and Juniors do a bake sale for Red nose day. We haven't made a final count but so far they got around £50 in donations! Well done.

Our company and Senior sections then took on a 30 minute hit cross bun recipe. They looked and tasted great but did result in a debate about whether raisins should be in hot cross buns or not!
