Let’s introduce the team!

We have Emma, who spends her day-to-day Scouting in Crawley. Emma is our wiz at design and getting posters made up for promos. We think she does a great job.

Then we have Elanor who spends her day-to-day Scouting in Adur Valley. She does all our admin work to make sure things are organised and work like clockwork.

We also have Cameron who also spends his day-to-day Scouting in Adur Valley. He looks after our finances. He makes sure we spend money wisely and brings events in on budget!

We have Mike, a beard to admire, He spends his day-to-day Scouting in Mid Sussex and is now the event lead for Explorer 24. More details to follow! You’ll see at the event how epic Mike is…

Mr Health and Safety himself, we have Will. He ensures everyone’s safety at all our events. Any hazard -he has looked, assessed and reported. His day-to-day Scouting is in Petworth and Pulborough, a very safe district that one with him.

Now the camera-shy crew!

We have Amber who without her no one would know when our next meeting will be or what we discussed. Amongst all the ideas flying around and chat she manages to minute it all. Fab secretary for the team. She spends her time Scouting in Arundel and Littlehampton.

We have Karl, he runs the socials (yes, he is the one behind the awful AI poster, he was told off). He loves showing off what we do and getting the word out about Scouting in West Sussex. Karl also spends his day-to-day Scouting in Arundel and Littlehampton.

Then we have the Boss. The lady who brought this epic team together. Sophia. Most of the ideas we run come from her imagination and as a team we make them come to life. She loves a tented village.

We are always open to new additions to the team so if you have a mind for logistics or have an eye for great photography or in fact any other skill you believe may be an addition so please reach out.

Now you know who we are, let’s go…
