The aliens have landed!
Well not quite but a drone like specimen has crashed landed in a back garden in Bagshot. It is flashing and awaiting its next command from mission control. Please pass on to anyone who you think could be its commander. Send a message to events@bagshotvilage.com so we pass on to the finder. Proof of ownership will be required. Thank you 
Bagshot Scout Group Needs Leaders
12 September, 2015 by
1st Bagshot Scouts needs leaders urgently! A number of leaders have had to stop or change the section they are supporting because of changes in their circumstances, and unfortunately, this has happened all at the same time. The situation is serious and if leaders can’t be found, it could lead to the Beaver Section being closed.
1st Bagshot was formed in 1909, just 2 years after Baden Powell formed the movement and is the oldest Group in Surrey. It runs successfully and has a effective support team that ensures that the Sections have everything they need.
Too Busy?
Its the oldest excuse in the book. Not a single one of the Scout leaders has spare time. They all lead busy lives and have challenging jobs but they make the time because its rewarding and because of the impact it has on young peoples lives.
Old and young all have something to contribute and there is lots of training and support available if you join the team.
To find out more or to volunteer, please contact Assistant Group Scout Leader Andy on cubs@bagshotscouts.org.uk

Eight-year-old birthday girl joins MP and Mayor to unveil new Bagshot Waitrose
20 August, 2015 by
Bagshot resident, Sophie Laithwaite, has unveiled a new supermarket today after writing to ask if it would be possible to open the branch as it fell on her eighth birthday.
Beginning her letter ‘Dear Mr Waitrose’, it arrived with Waitrose Managing Director, Mark Price, who asked the team at the new Waitrose in Bagshot to help make Sophie’s birthday wish come true.
Sophie was joined by Michael Gove MP, The Mayor of Surrey Heath, Joanne Potter, and branch manager, Gary Collyer, in welcoming the first customers to the new London Road shop at 8am this morning (20th August) before being given a cake to mark her special day.
The new London Road branch follows a £14m investment which has resulted in 200 new jobs being created ranging from supermarket sales assistants through to specialist positions and management. Waitrose worked closely with the local Jobcentre Plus to help recruit for the roles, helping a number of unemployed people get back into work.
Waitrose has launched a number of initiatives to support the local community. The retailer’s Community Matters ‘green token’ scheme will see £1,000 donated to local charities every month. The first causes to benefit will be The Children with Special Needs Foundation, Harper Asprey Wildlife Rescue, and Bagshot Care. Customers can nominate different charities each month, resulting in a total of £12,000 donated annually.
Gary Collyer, Waitrose Bagshot branch manager said: “It’s fantastic to not only celebrate opening a new Waitrose, but to help mark Sophie’s big day.
“We are grateful for the support of the Mayor, our local MP, Mr Gove, who joined us today. We have made a major investment believing we can make a positive contribution to the area, through the quality on offer at the branch, our community initiatives and the 200 people we will employ.”
Waitrose Bagshot will include meat, fish, deli and cheese counters, an extensive wine department, a bakery with an eat-in area and parking for 338 cars.
