We're thrilled to announce that Get In is coming back, and will be held on Friday 20th - Sunday 22nd May 2022. We will be returning to the familiar grounds of Ragley Hall (Alcester, B49 5NJ) which is where Get In 2015 was held!

This will be a fantastic event for all our youth sections, Network, Leaders and Young Leaders. Please share this date with members far and wide, and encourage everyone to block the weekend out in their calendars!

Maximum group size:

• Activities involving young people: no limit on group size but remain as only one section meeting independently of others.
• Scout Network programmed activities (non social): no limit on group size but remain as only one section meeting independently of others.
• Adult activities (non-social) with no young people present: check local government guidance

Dear Stratford Upon Avon District Leaders and supporters,

As you know the District has been without a District Commissioner since Mike Hayward stepped down a couple of years ago and I have been covering in an acting capacity.  Thank you for bearing with me during this time. 

I am delighted to announce that Glyn Slade has agreed to take on the DC position.  This will be a new name to many of you as he has not been involved in Scouting within Stratford Upon Avon District previously.  He was a member as a young person and adult in Birmingham.

We’re delighted to announce the appointment of Carl Hankinson, our new UK Chief Commissioner, and Jennie Price, our new Chair of the Board of Trustees.
