GSLs
I appreciate that we are all busy and have personal, professional and Scouting commitments that we all have to deal with however one thing that we need to make sure we get correct is the paperwork. Scouting has moved on, and not for the better in some cases, we as leaders and GSLs need to make sure that we follow the guidelines set down in POR to ensure that we are not leaving ourselves wide open should anything go wrong.
Can I encourage you to make sure that your leaders have the necessary paperwork, disclosure and training required for the role that they are undertaking. The District Team are available to assist should you need any help.
One thing that I do not want happening is that a leader or GSL is validating the training of someone with in their own group and I am slowly appointing training advisers for each group. The regional training team are going to run training to allow more leaders to becoming training advisers and if you have anyone you think would be a good advisers then please pass me the name.
Currently we have allocated the following advisers:-
1. 102nd Beith Scout Group - Margaret Fowler
2. 19th Kilwinning - Margaret Craik
3. 73rd Bourtreehill - Margaret Fowler
4. 15th Ardrossan - John Hopkins
5. 71st Skelmorlie - James Cumming
6. 52nd Saltcoats - James Cumming
7. 53rd Largs - James Cumming
8. Arran Groups - Alan Stout
9. 1st - 6th Irvine - Vacant
10. 63rd Kilbirnie - Vacant
Yours in Scouting
