Free Labour?

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'll try.

At a recent Brocante, we got talking to a french stallholder, and when he heard wewere renovating our house and garden, he suggested that we contact the scouts. Apparently, if you provide them somewhere to camp free of charge, they will help with work in the garden etc.

As our garden is a mess that has hardly been touched, we thought that this may be a good idea.

My question is - has anyone tried this, or know of anyone who has?

We will hopefully be in touch with them shortly, but would be interested to know if such arrangements actually work.

I can't say I have heard of this but then we don't have any local Scouts round here but I would err on the side of caution and make sure you are covered in case of any accidents as you would be liable for treatment and fines etc. Minors are not allowed to use certain machinery and tools and must be supervised so check with the local mairie for the details and then those in charge of the Scouts as they too carry the blame.
