24th Rotherham - Wickersley Scout Group

13/07/2026

We were all saddened to hear the news that Daniel Towriss (Dan), a former Scout Leader from Wickersley Scouts, passed away this weekend.

Dan was a valued member of our Scouts team and gave his time, energy and enthusiasm to supporting young people within our group. Many of our members, volunteers and families will remember him fondly and appreciate the positive impact he had on our Scout community.

This photograph captures Dan sharing his skills, knowledge and experience with young people. He was passionate about helping others learn, grow in confidence and achieve their potential. His patience, encouragement and willingness to give his time made a lasting difference to so many.
Dan's kindness, dedication and commitment to Scouting will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him. His legacy lives on through the young people he inspired and supported throughout his years of service.

Our thoughts and sincere condolences are with Daniel's family and friends at this difficult time.
