Our Team
Our programme is at the heart of everything we do. Our programming (what our Scouts do each week) is developed and run by Section Teams, with input from young people. Every volunteer either plans and runs the programme or assists the volunteers who do. Every volunteer contributes to the development of excellent youth programmes. Meet the team of volunteers who make up the 41st!

Group Lead Volunteer
James is our Scout group’s Lead Volunteer and an Explorer Team Member; I lead a terrific volunteer team of 30 who provide active and interesting weekly programming for 100 young people.

Group Trustee Board
The Trustee Board is a group of volunteers that work together as charity trustees to ensure Scouting is managed safely and legally. This is led by Martyn, our Chair, Gill, our Treasurer, James, our Group Lead Volunteer, and other trustees who assist our volunteers in delivering outstanding activities that equip young people with life skills.
If you would like to contact Gill, our group treasurer, email treasurer@41st.org.uk.
Group Leadership Team
The Group Leadership Team supports volunteers across all Sections, ensuring they work collaboratively and effectively. They focus on fostering respect for the Group within the local community while ensuring the voices and ideas of young people influence decisions across the Group and its Sections.
This team includes Team Leaders from Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, and Explorers, alongside our Group Lead Volunteer.
Section Teams
The Section Teams is responsible for planning, delivering, and running engaging and safe programmes for our Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, and Explorer sections. They ensure that every young person can fully participate in the programme and develop essential skills for life. Additionally, they support young people in achieving their Top Awards – a goal many have proudly reached thanks to the dedication of our leaders!
Each Section Team consists of Team Leaders, Team Members, and Young Leaders.
