A delegation of Section Leaders, District Team and other volunteers from across the District were invited to the Mayor’s Chamber at the Civic Offices in Grays on Thursday 25th August for a private reception with the Mayor.
The District was officially inducted with the presentation of a Certificate of Achievement from the Mayor to our District Chair Geoff Harris, who accepted the certificate on behalf of our 600+ volunteers.
It is a huge privilege to receive this honour as it recognises the thousands of hours our volunteers dedicate each year to supporting and young people across Thurrock and helping them develop vital skills for life.
Our District Commissioner, Graham Monk, was also surprised to find out he was also being inducted for his long service to Scouting.
