While older Scouts and their leaders enlisted in the Armed Forces as the conflict progressed, younger Scouts diversified their tasks, with a notable contribution being their crucial support to the Coastguard. Tasked with watching the coast, ports, and estuaries to counter the threat of a German invasion, Scouts, under the supervision of the coastguard but led by their Patrol Leaders, demonstrated independence by undertaking activities such as coast watching, signalling, and message delivery. Additionally, Scouts volunteered for farm work, filling the labour gap left by men who had joined the Armed Forces. The messenger boy role, vital in an era with limited telecommunications, saw Scouts stationed at key locations for urgent message delivery due to their health, strength, reliability, and sense of direction. The Scouts' multifaceted contributions showcased their adaptability and resourcefulness during this challenging period. Thanks Chat GPT!

Genuine story. In early 2000 Young woman in Nelson with two small children, just before Christmas husband dropped dead a work. He was the only wage earner. Woman went to Nelson Council for help and advice. Council would not help without confirmation of death (ie certificate) Guy was bearly cold so no certificate available for weeks - therefore no help from council. Lady in reception gave lady a leaflet for local mosque where help was waiting. Lady left with foodbank voucher, pathway to fastrack support, and £2k in her hand. If you hit hard times, head for the mosque. ps had to delete the post referring to 1514mification of the UK...

It would be great if Charlie sometimes reached out to a local to get a bit of a 'how it was' narration. I grew up near here which meant that in the late 80's early 90's it was mum and dad shopping day. It was thriving. Packed out Arndale (extended Pendle Rise), Woolies across (Pound Grow), Butchers, Grocers, Great indoor market, Majorca cafe for meat pie and chips, busy train and bus station, Star club busy over 2 floors, beautiful St Mary's church and....(back in the 60's the Imperial Ballroom who had the Beatles, Stones, every single major act except Elvis Presley)............and then..........well we all know what then...

Completely agree. I grew up here and left in 2001 down Chester way. As you said, once was such a thriving town. Both floors of the Arndale was full of shops. The indoor market downstairs was great to have a look around. Buying toys from there was the highlight of my week as a young one. Used to help mum with the shopping until I was a teen and then it was a place to go and buy the latest singles either from Our Price or Woolies. The Grand cinema was great too as a Kid. Used to be a good afternoon out. I remember going to watch films on my own and making friends, sharing popcorn. I had some great times there but sadly it’s just one big dump. We all know why and I only come back to visit my parents once a year and that’s enough. All the Victorian buildings that are now just left to rot and our once great churches being overtaken. So sad..

Brit in France here. After 15 years I can't say I like France, but then I can't say I particularly liked England... But that's probably more about me, as I do try and avoid people as a rule, but the special, polite creative ones of good character are of course allowed in if they pass my complicated series of psychological tests. 🙈🤣 But that said, I think I prefer being English in another country than actually being 'home'. Mainly because those I speak to who haven't been to England (especially my American clients) seem to think as a whole, England is permanently sun-soaked, beautiful and full of hope like Darling Buds of May, Hogwarts or Downton Abbey, and by association, they too think I am perhaps something that I am not? ... Which sometimes I must confess is pretty useful! Anyway, thank you for the thought-provoking video Mr V. Compliments of the season to you all back home, from a cold wet French forest. 🌞

Nelson wasn't that bad when I was growing up in the 1960s. Many Lancashire towns (especially East Lancashire) started to rapidly go downhill with the demise and ultimate end of the Lancashire cotton industry, and they have never recovered. Manchester (which used to be a part of Lancashire) had at one time the nickname of Cottonopolis and was the metropolis centre of the cotton industry. Sadly, some parts of Lancashire consist of dirty and scruffy looking ghost towns. Pendle Council have plans to demolish the shopping centre, and to revamp the town centre (which ought to have been done many years ago) but I'm not sure that any remodelling etc., of the town centre will improve things.

Well the gloomy weather suits this town very well. I don't think I'll be rushing to Nelson any time soon, not unless I feel like some Halal fried Chicken, which is also very unlikely.

Don't judge a book by its cover- Nelson- Accrington- Burnley- Darwen are externally the most bleak towns to look at- however one has to feel the place- the people- there is heart in those people a socialist community of honesty and support within those lancashire Towns that is rare and difficult to find in other English towns.

Sh1t I'm due to live outside of a depressing Lancashire 'City' similar to this town where there is white flight in the satellite villages; I am dreading it but where else can you go; most UK cities are not really that great in the center to live and I just don't know.
