A new Cub Scout Programme is launched

The City's Beavers hold a day long 'Helping Others' to develop international understanding. Their efforts at stamp collecting as part of 'Scouts Go for a Million' are rewarded with a day of activities at Scout HQ where they visit bases representing 12 countries. Over half the City's beavers take part - eating spaghetti and fruit kebabs, tasting blackcurrant wine, making ice cream and amongst other activities making windmills. They also present the Scout Holiday Homes Trust with the proceeds of the sale of the 750,000 postage stamps

Despite overall falling membership, two new Cup Packs are opened at 15th (St Paul's) and at 225th (St William and St Wilfred) (its second Pack). On the negative side a Pack in in each of Rivelin and Porter District closes

In August 1992, the Chief Commissioner initiates a review of the necessity for "mid-tier" bodies (eg SCSA) and the Count Commisioner for South Yorkshire, Neil Leatherland, reports to the review that he cannot justify the existence of SCSA. This is the beginning of a five year saga, which some would say has all the elements of a television soap - drama, suspense, egos, jealousies, oversights, backtracking etc. The whole sad story can be found here

The Channel Tunnel opens
The National Lottery begins
July 1993 sees the end of Scouting training and activities under a City organisation led by a City Commissioner and from now on District Commissioners are responsible directly to the County Commissioner for the operation of their District. SCSC continues to control and operate the assets of the City on behalf of the Districts but maintains no role in representing uniformed Scouting.

Sheffield City Scout Council becomes Sheffield Scout Resources Charity, an independent Charity responsible to its members, the five Scout Districts of Sheffield.
