Team DC Kenilworth

He was ADC Cub Scouts for six years in Kenilworth supporting this section and running successful events like the annual Easter Egg Hunt and Valentine's Disco. He is Group Chairman at the 5th Kenilworth Group and has been heavily involved in the setting up of Kenilworth's first Squirrel Drey. He also attended the 2019 World Scout Jamboree in West Virginia as a leader with one of the Warwickshire Units. He will be joining the Warwickshire County International trip to Belize in 2024 as one of the Leaders, alongside nearly 100 participants from across Warwickshire.

Stuart Heaton has been involved as a leader since 1988 and is currently a Leader at Waverley Scout Group, prior to which he was District Commissioner for six years during which time he opened both a new Explorer Scout Unit and an additional Scout Group within the District. Stuart supports grassroots Scouting through events like the annual District Summer Camp which provides the opportunity for all young people in the District to take part in a camp away.

5th Kenilworth go to Brownsea Island

5^th Kenilworth Scouts visited Brownsea Island on 29 April until 1 May – it was a time for adventure, a time for reflection and a time for building on friendships in a unique location. Brownsea Island is as near to a perfect Scouting experience that you could wish for.  16 Scouts enjoyed activities over the weekend such as paddle boarding, kayaking, camp craft, nature trails as well as exploring the island to skim stones and beach comb.  We even followed in the footsteps of Baden-Powell and camped on his actual 1907 camp field.
