Deep Sea Scouts - Fellowship

Fellowship

Due to the decrease in shipping and the reductions in the Royal Navy, the numbers of Deep Sea Scouts fell quite dramatically, and it was decided that the organisation be replaced by a Scouting Fellowship.

The Deep Sea Scout Fellowship was started in 1991, and currently has 200 members.

The Fellowship maintains the same aims and entry requirements of its predecessor, but it also allows direct relatives of eligible members to join as long as they are active within the Scout Association, too.

Famous quotes containing the word fellowship:

    There is a fellowship more quiet even than solitude, and which, rightly understood, is solitude made perfect.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Have no fellowship with one that is mightier and richer than thyself: for how agree the kettle and the earthen pot together? For if the one be smitten against the other, it shall be broken.
    Apocrypha. Ecclesiasticus 13:2.

    A Country is not a mere territory; the particular territory is only its foundation. The Country is the idea which rises upon that foundation; it is the sentiment of love, the sense of fellowship which binds together all the sons of that territory.
    Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
