The Venture Unit of the 1st Cospicua Scout Group is cleaning up the bastions in the area of St John's Tower and the Couvre Porte, the old entrance to the city of Vittoriosa.
The local council was the mover behind the initiative as part of its constant drive to maintain the historical city while at the same time instilling in the young members of the Scout Group a sense of civic duty and appreciation of the cultural and historical heritage of the locality.
The scouts put to good use the abseiling and teamwork skills they are constantly learning and practising.
The walls being cleaned are more than six storeys high in some parts.
