East Wickam and Welling District Scouting website

The Scout Network is a County co-ordinated section for all members aged 18 -25 yrs, some of whom may or may not already be Leaders of other sections.

The term Leader and Scouter are both used to describe those adults who hold a Warrant. The Warrant is the appointment card that is given to those who accept the appointment as a uniformed Leader. Such appointments are made by the Scout District. Other adults may be Helpers or Skilled Instructors. Helpers usually provide general help to a secion on a regular basis whilst Skilled Instructors provide more specialised support. Both are issued with Certificates of Appointment.

Your Scout Group is part of a Scout District, which exists to provide support to and promote co-operation between groups. The district will be lead by a DC (District Commissioner). the DC is supported by a team of ADC (Assistant District Commissioners). These will each have specific responsibilites and thus hold appointments such as ADC(CS) (Assistant District Commissioner Cub Scout).
