Edinburgh North East AGM

Quick links

Congratulations to everyone at Edinburgh North East on their hard work and dedication.

District Commissioner, Rob Whitelaw, and Deputy District Commissioner, Bill Ramsay, would like to thank all the Edinburgh North East adult volunteers for their commitment over the past 12 months. And congratulate all leaders who have received service awards or wood badges over the past year. Here are a selection of presentations and general images from the recent AGM which was held at Greenside Church, Edinburgh, on Sunday 26th June 2022. 

If you’d like to get involved in Scouting as an adult volunteer with one of the Groups that make up the Edinburgh North East Scouts District please email Scouting Support Officer, Kirstie Armsworth. 

It was a busy night recognising achievements and thanking our volunteers for their contribution to Scouts. You are the shining lights that make Scouts possible in the Edinburgh North East Scouts District.
