Our Districts

Scouting in Durham is organised into Districts (who run Explorer Scouts and Scout Network), who in turn have a number of Scout Groups that run Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs and Scouts.

Each District has a Lead Volunteer to oversee the district, along with a team of volunteers who run it, as well as their own Trustee Board for governance. A list of Lead Volunteers, email addresses and websites can be seen below.
