We’re very proud of the seven Scouts and Explorer Scouts from North London Scout District who will be taking part in the World Scout Jamboree in Japan in Summer 2015.

One of our Jamboree participants – Amy from Wild Wolf ESU – is featured in the Haringey Independent this week.

You can find out all about our local Jamboree unit on their website.

More than 30 young people from North London Scout District received awards from the Jack Petchey Foundation this year.

Read more about this year’s ceremony on the Greater London North Scouts website.

Ten teams of Explorer Scouts and adults from North London Scout District took part in this year’s Southern 50 Challenge, an annual hiking competition held in the Chiltern Hills each February.

A message from our District Commissioner John Cronin:

I can now confirm that, following the announcement from the County Commissioner regarding the merger of CCI and Haringey Districts, our new District will be entitled North London Scout District and that operationally we will be operating as North London Scout District from today.

It will take some time for the Charity/Trustee area to catch up with us, but as far as the Groups and Units are concerned, we are now one District.
