Thousands of youngsters descended on Windsor Great Park for a week of activities as part of an international scouting jamboree, returning for the first time since Covid.
Slough Scouts joined 4,000 young people from around the world at the WINGS International Jamboree 2026, hosted in the park from July 25 to August 1.
The huge event, supported by about a thousand adult volunteers, involved an "action-packed programme with kayaking, survival crafts, circus skills, climbing, and engineering".
The jamboree has been hosted by Berkshire Scouts and Royal Berkshire Guiding since 1993, returned for the first time this year since 2014, with the 2020 iteration having been cancelled due to the Covid pandemic.
Victor, a member of the Slough Explorers, said it was "amazing" to meet all the different people at the jamboree.
Chief Scout Dwayne Fields , who joined the celebrations and activities for a day, said: "It was an honour to be the first Chief Scout in almost 30 years to attend the WINGS International Jamboree in Berkshire. What an incredible event, bringing together thousands of young people and adult volunteers for a week of fun, adventure, and friendship."
