We are members of Plast (Ukrainian Scouts & Guides Organisation). And although we don’t have many members ( appx. 100 ) we come from all over the country ( Manchester, Nottingham, Derby, Wolverhampton, London, Scotland and the Irish Republic) We came to Britain soon after Second World War, but some of our members now are British born third generation of Ukrainians ( or Ukies as we are often referred to by others ). At first we were camping in Surrey and in the Midlands, but in 1965 we have bought the Rangemore smallholding and we have camped here ever since every year. In the seventies we had as many as 250 campers usually two or three weeks in July/August. The rest of the year (11 months) we sub- let the field (about 8 acres) to a local farmer Mr. Bob Jones for grazing or hay making. Ukrainian web site at http://www.plast.org.uk includes pictures of the site.
