‘The Scouts is such an incredible organisation, teaching #SkillsForLife and making a huge difference to young people across the country.

EMBARGOED TO 2230 THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 5 Dwayne Fields, the first black Briton to reach the North Pole, has been announced by the Scouts as the UK’s new chief scout.

The adventurer will succeed TV star Bear Grylls, who was appointed as chief scout in 2009, aged 34, making him the UK’s youngest ever in the role at the time. The Scouts said a key part of Mr Fields’ mission will be to attract new volunteers, especially in communities new to the group, in order to welcome more young people.?See PA story SOCIAL Scouts.

Earlier this summer, Kate made an appearance at Wimbledon, where she presented trophies to players.

The audience welcomed her with a standing ovation, in a moving display of support following her cancer diagnosis. 

This marked Kate’s second public appearance of the year. She was accompanied by sister Pippa Middleton and daughter Princess Charlotte.

In the latest update about her health in June, Kate said she was ‘blown away’ by the support of the public.

She added that while she is making good progress, her treatment is still ongoing and will be continuing for a few months.

She continued: ‘I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days.

‘On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to
your body resting. But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well.

‘My treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months. On the days I feel well enough, it is a joy to engage with school life, spend personal time on the things that give me energy and positivity, as well as starting to do a little work from home.’
