Through supporting the sector’s leaders during Covid-19, our members have shared their stories, supported each other and showed amazing innovation, resilience and endurance. We wanted to capture and share some of these stories as a snapshot of how the sector has continued to be an essential part of the response to this global pandemic and how our leaders have risen, and continue to rise, to each new challenge. We have started this document with an ACOSVO case study to set the context, but this publication is about telling our members stories.

  • Essential Information for Adults New to Scouting
    7:KBJÊI F;HIED7B <?B;$ ;ii[dj_Wb?d\ehcWj_ed\eh7Zkbji D[mjeIYekj_d] iYekji$eh]$ka%b[Whd[hih[iekhY[i ;:?JEHÊIDEJ; Although in some parts of the British Isles Scout Counties are known as Areas or Islands – and in one case Bailiwick – for ease of reading this publication simply refers to County/Counties. In Scotland there is no direct equivalent to County or Area. In Scotland, Scouting is organised into Districts and Regions, each with distinct responsibilities. Some ‘County’ functions are the responsibility of Scottish Regions, while others lie with Scottish Districts. The focus of responsibility is outlined in Scottish Variations from POR. The equivalent role to County Training Manager in Scotland is the Assistant Regional Commissioner (Adult Training). For ease of reading this document refers to County Training Manager, except where there is a practical difference between the two roles, in which case this is indicated. The term ‘Training Manager’ is used to refer to those in The Scout Association who are responsible for managing training provision, including: County Training Manager, Local Training Manager, Assistant Regional Commissioner (Adult Training) Scotland and Assistant District Commissioner (Adult Training) Scotland. Again, for ease of reading, all adults taking part in the Training Scheme are referred to as learners. 9EDJH?8KJEHI Rosie Shepherd Louise Fuller Robert Halkyard Claire McAuliffe Peter Rogers 4th Edition Copyright © 2009 The Scout Association, Registered Charity Numbers 306101 (England and Wales) and SC038437 (Scotland). 9EDJ;DJI B;JJ;H<HECJ>;9>?;<I9EKJ$$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $$$$$$$$$$) '$B?IJE<?CFEHJ7DJ9EDJ79JI$$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $$$$$$$$$* ($?DJHE:K9J?ED$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$+ )$J>;IJHK9JKH;E<I9EKJ?D=$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $$$$$$$$$$, a.

    Scout and Guide Stamps Club BULLETIN Volume 55 No. 1 (Whole No. 315) Have a really great time if you are lucky enough to be going. JANUARY / FEBRUARY 2011 1 Editorial Welcome to 2011 - a World Jamboree Year - and it really doesn’t seem like four years since we were running our base, alongside the International Badgers Club, here in Chelmsford. I wish all those who are attending an enjoyable time and an experience which will last them a lifetime. I am pleased to inform you that our member Hallvard Slettebø served successfully as Apprentice Juror at the FIP world stamp exhibition Portugal 2010, and has now received accreditation as FIP Juror for Thematic Philately. I am sure that you will all join with me in congratulating him on this success. Elsewhere in this issue you will see a formal announcement of the Annual General Meeting which is being held earlier this year in the hope that it will encourage and enable more members to attend. As last year the Meeting will be held at the Scout Docklands Project aboard the H.Q. Training Ship, the MV Lord Amory, commenc- ing at 14.00. The site is within easy walking distance of stops on the Docklands Light Railway and there is a local area map on the back page showing directions. I hope that you all enjoy this issue and the good news is that I still have some articles in hand, including the final part of Peter Duck’s Handstamps. However, not to be complacent, I would welcome some more so that the Bulletin can have a balance of subjects and I can have a choice in filling the spaces.
