Three Thousand Saudi Boy Scouts helping pilgrims in Mecca

The annual Hajj Pilgrimage, the world's largest annual gathering, has just finished in Islam's Holiest shrine, Mecca, Saudi Arabia, with an estimated four million pilgrims from all over the world coming together to pray, making this the largest Hajj ever.

Three thousand Saudi Scouts worked over the Hajj, helping to guide pilgrims along their way, helping in hospitals and reception centres, and simply being the smiling face to show the way.
