Trustees

The Group has a small core of trustees who are charged with the administration of the charity and support the leaders to provide the best experiences they can to our children.

Margaret
 

Margaret, her husband Mike, and their two sons are founding members of 1st Blackwater Valley B-P Scouts. Margaret has been a leader with Beavers and Cubs and is now a Trustee but still holds a uniform warrant so that she can help out where possible. Margaret and Mike taught archery to the Scouts together and Mike made the Scout Patrol boxes that are still in use today.
