Bryan Johnson will be stepping down as Lead Volunteer for Durham County at the end of this year. 

Bryan has led the County through a significant period of transformation, reshaping the County Leadership Team and recovering after the impact of the pandemic. Under Bryan’s leadership, Durham has continued to see strong growth, increased the number of top awards and continued to deliver a strong programme of activities.

As Bryan moves on, we’re looking for an enthusiastic and talented person who can lead and support Scouts in Durham. It’s an exciting time to be involved as we embed our improvements to volunteer experience and shape our new strategy.  

This is your opportunity to nominate someone you think has the skills and qualities to lead the County forward, or apply for the role yourself if this sounds like you. You can find out more about the role on our website.

The closing date for applications is 9am on Friday 5 September 2025. If you’d like an informal conversation before applying, please reach out to Ian Hammond at [email protected].
