New DC’sThe following change in DC’s was announced to take effect on 1st February 2020.
The County Commissioner commented; “Collectively this represents a significant change in three Districts and I believe all three appointments will help deliver effective front line Scouting over the coming years. I am very grateful to Val Thomason who has been covering Knutsford District and Martin Relton who has been covering Macclesfield & Congleton while the search for new DC’s has been underway. We should all be proud that Cheshire Scouting continues to find quality people to lead quality Scouting and take on these demanding but highly rewarding roles. Go Cheshire!”Discover More |
