Bulangira Disables Association
As a result of Uganda 2000, the Company joined a partnership with the BDA UK Project Team, the Uganda Scouts Association and the Friends of Scouting Uganda, to provide a vocational workshop for the Bulangira Disables Association which also supports a 22 strong Scout Group. It provides work for its disabled members and aims to be self sufficient. The land was purchased and the completed workshop handed over to the Association and further improvements have since been made.

Mityana Community Development Foundation
BSEL assisted what was Mityana Scout Enterprises in 2000 and in 2007 this became Mityana Community Development Foundation. With the Company's support it has been able to purchase a building to convert to a Community Centre. We have also provided financial support for Mityana Scouts.

UK Uganda Network
The Company has been involved in supporting initially the Friends of Scouting Society Uganda in 1988 and in 1991 in support of the Uganda Scouts Association and their Members through promoting community and other projects.
The Network brings together those who have an interest in building friendship with the people in Uganda through Scouting. Many Groups, Districts and individuals have visited Uganda carrying out community and Scouting activities, such as Uganda 2000 to mark the millennium, which was sponsored by the Company. Other Network members have provided funds, particularly towards education for underprivileged children.
