I fully support this valuable community resource, and oppose any change of use.

I think it is appalling that a Scout Group dedicated to working with youth for the future benefit of society and has done for 100 years and formany years out of the current headquarters is under threat of eviction for pure profit. I believe that the current planning application should be turned down.

Disgracefull, Tennant not notified until the day before. Sounds very underhand and downright dodgy.

Scout groups should be helped not hindered. Something's can't have a price put on them.

Scouting gives children the opportunity to do activities that for some are impossible without Leaders who give their time & commitment to other people's children. There fore the Swansea scout hut must be retained

As a leader and someone who knows the value of scouting in this area it is vital that we keep this headquarters open and where it is. 100 years in the area - 54 at this HQ. Shows we are here to stay

This is a community building. All scouts are trying to do is help young people be part of the community. Its sad that there are people out there trying to take that away from people.

Scouting brings so many benefits to young children of the community. I hope this can carry on for many years to come and not be threatened.

We really need to keep scouting in the community.I am a scout Mum for 30 years and have watched my son grow from a Beaver to a Leader.

This needs to be resolved! Scouting is a community benefit and should be supported by the council not bulldozed!

It is disgraceful that a council should do this to a voluntary organisation working in the community. Which councillors took backhanders, I wonder, to ease the sale through...

Don't ruin the community that this scout group is such a part of.

Scouting is a fantastic organisation that provides young people with a unique experience where they are challenged in what they do, in order to improve as a person and gain new skills. It is utterly ridiculous that these plans have even been suggested. Frankly I am shocked that someone has the audacity to think that these actions are acceptable. Everyone should have the opportunity to join the Scouting Movement and these suggested actions would deprive many of this. Please allow the Scout HQ to continue serving its community. Thank you.
