EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from 1987, we see the positive impact of a new waste paper collection scheme on scouts in Stockton and Thornaby. The young scouts are seen eagerly picking up a load of newspapers, showcasing their dedication to recycling and fundraising for their clubs. The image captures the essence of the 1980s, with its vibrant colors and vintage uniforms worn by these enthusiastic schoolchildren. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when community involvement was cherished. Led by Carl Dalton, Venture Scout Leader, and supported by Sue Amos, Scout Communications Leader, and Bruce Merrick, these young scouts demonstrate their commitment to making a difference in their local environment. They understand that old news can be good news when it comes to recycling. This heartwarming scene showcases the importance of teaching children about sustainability at an early age while instilling values such as teamwork and responsibility. By participating in this council-run initiative, these scouts not only contribute towards environmental conservation but also learn valuable life skills along the way. As we look back on this photograph today through Teesside Archive's lens, it reminds us how small actions can make a big difference – even something as simple as collecting newspapers for recycling can have far-reaching benefits for our communities.
