Faith's 25th World Scout Jamboree Fundraiser

Hi, I am Faith, a 16 year old Londoner born in Malta. I will be attending the 25th World Scout Jamboree in South Korea in 2023 with the UK Contingent. The World Scout Jamboree will gather up to 50,000 people from all over the world. It is an educational event to promote peace and understanding.
