Scouting has always been a large part of my life and I have been involved since Cubs at 8 years old.
For almost 2 years I have been the Deputy District Commissioner for Southern Europe where my time was spent supporting the new and smaller Groups across the District.
I have also been the Group Scout Leader for a large group in east Scotland for the past 20 years, having previously scouted in South London and the Forth Valley.
I have led various contingents to jamborettes in Andalucia, Blair Atholl, Florida and Gibraltar.
Professionally, I work within financial services and lead a team based in the UK and Spain. Consequently I spend quite a bit of time working in both Spain and the UK.
I am delighted to take on the lead volunteer role for the Southern Europe District.
