District Vacancies

We are always on the lookout for people to help out on sections (Beavers through to Explorers) but if you would prefer an equally important 'back-room' role then we'd also like to offer vacancies with our executive committees who are trustees and make sure sections are managed efficiently and within the rules.  We are as flexible as you need us to be.  If you can spare an hour or two a week, a month or a year, we'll be able to find you a role that suits your willingness to get involved.
