Sean

Group Lead Volunteer

(Formerly Group Scout

Sean is the vicar of Freedom Church where we meet and it was his vision to see the church opened up to the community in a variety of different ways. This included the creation of a brand new Scout Group for the district.

Helena

Helena became a Scout Leader when her son joined the movement as a Beaver. He's now at university but Helena is still leading the way as an excellent and compassionate role model.

Jess is the daughter of Mongoose and has been a Scout since Beavers. She worked her way up through all the sections, leaving Explorer Scouts in 2024 to become an adult leader.

Jo

Beaver Colony Team Leader

Known as "Mongoose"

Jo's Scouting story started as a Scout at 12th Gosport. As she moved through the sections, she did her Community Service at 27th Gosport and also helped out at the younger sections of her own group too. She worked her way up, earning the highest achievement any Scout can be awarded: the Queen's Scout Award.

Kelly

Cub Pack Team Member

Known as "Bagheera"

Kelly was a Girl Guide when she was a teenager and remained long enough to start her Young Leader training but sadly college took up too much of her time. Once college was over and she was working in a nursery, she tried to return to her old 

group but found it difficult to get back in touch. A colleague suggested Kelly join their Cub Pack. That was in 2010!

Since then, she's focused mostly on being an Assistant Cub Scout Leader but has frequently helped out in other sections. While 4th doesn't yet have Cubs, Kelly helps out with the younger two sections but when our Pack opens, she'll focus mainly on that section.

Outside of Scouting, Kelly is a Visitor Services Supervisor at Royal Armouries Fort Nelson, the National Museum of Artillery.
