REGARDING the various articles concerning the 'non-celebration' of our national patron saint. Some do not seem aware of the fact that members of the Scout movement all over the country celebrate St George's Day on or near April 23 with parades and a service.

Queen Scouts also have a special parade and a service in St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle.
