Congratulations to Callum Selby on his appointment as County Youth Lead (Designate) for Lincolnshire Scouts!


“I am delighted to announce that Callum Selby has been appointed as County Youth Lead (Designate) for Lincolnshire Scouts. In this role, Callum will lead the development of our youth-shaped agenda across the County, ensuring that the voices, ideas and experiences of young people are embedded in how we plan, deliver and grow Scouting. He will work closely with our volunteers and leadership teams to strengthen our programme, influence decision-making at County level and champion meaningful youth involvement in all that we do.


I would also like to place on record my sincere thanks to Caitlin for the fantastic contribution she has made as Youth Lead, and to wish her every success and happiness in her future endeavours.”
